Of late I was asked to prepare a case study for 'Vertica' and therein the picture for 'analytic database' and 'Big Data' made me do more and even more study and explore opportunities.

Perhaps, if you are still mesmerized like I am, the manner in which the 'Big Data' has now become the talk of town, I am sure you will find the below mentioned links useful.

and a wonderful post describing the market segmentation of analytic databases, please follow the link
