It’s been in the works for some time, but this week, Vertica is finally taking the wraps off its new managed cloud service, branded Vertica Accelerator. Initially running on AWS, Vertica Accelerator will be a service that customers buy through their existing AWS cloud credits, but where Vertica takes charge of all the underlying housekeeping.
Accelerator is based on Eon technology, which Vertica announced several years ago, which provides a cloud-native separation of compute from storage that runs with Kubernetes (K8s), not only at compute tier, but also in the storage tier with its support of MinIO for on-premises deployments.
