Review on Speedment by Todd Phillips

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Speedment - Dremio made life simple and quick

This product is very easy to setup, it has great documentation which makes things even easier for us as newbies in this space! It does not support any other database than SQL Server but that's ok since we are only using MS-SQL at our organization so far (and eventually Oracle DB).

The pricing model seems quite expensive compared with competitors like Redash or Snowflake Cloud Data Warehouse where you get much more features included such an enterprise grade storage engine along many others benefits out of box without having to pay extra per month/yearly etc.. We needed something fast & reliable because there were some requirements around latency from time series data ingestion into BI tooling - speed was one among them.

Pros
  • Very good performance when ingesting large volumes.
  • Easy integration between Spark / Databricks services within same cluster; no need anymore separate clusters just install everything inside your Azure DC instance instead,
  • Great community forum helpdesk available 24x7 via slack channel if required
Cons
  • Nothing here
