Yellowbrick Data
Top Executive: CEO Neil Carson
Yellowbrick Data, which got its start as a data warehouse appliance supplier, now develops massively parallel processing (MPP) data warehouse and SQL analytics products.
Its core data warehouse offering, incorporating its MPP database, can be distributed across data centers, public and private clouds, and the network edge. Earlier this month the Palo Alto, Calif.-headquartered company debuted Yellowbrick Manager for unified control of data warehouses across distributed clouds.
The company positions itself as an upgrade option for current Teradata and IBM Netezza data warehouse owners and a less-costly alternative to Snowflake.
