HPE revamps Vertica & Haven OnDemand with advanced machine learning capabilities

Hewlett Packard Enterprise Co. (HPE) has updated its Vertica analytics suite while introducing new machine learning capabilities to Haven OnDemand. Vertica is software that analyzes structured data, for example information that's stored in rows and fields. But with the new update, Vertica 8, codenamed "Frontloader", HPE has introduced a unified architecture as well as in-database analytics capabilities. According to HPE, Vertica 8 has been designed to help customers extract intelligence from data that resides in multiple silos throughout the data center, be it on-premises, in private and public clouds, or in Hadoop data lakes. Meanwhile, Vertica's new in-database machine learning algorithms enable users to create and deploy R-based machine learning models directly inside the software.
