“Vectorwise and Action Apps are breakthrough technologies,” said Data Teo Tien
Hiong, CEO of SAINS. “In our experience, fast query performance is always an
important factor in a successful business intelligence implementation.

reporting and analytics on large amounts of data. What makes Vectorwise unique
is how it achieves this performance with less hardware and database tuning to
produce happier end users and faster BI deployments at a lower cost.”
The record-breaking
Vectorwise database last year smashed the Transaction Processing Performance
Council's TPC-H benchmark for 100GB, 300GB and 1TB on a single cluster by the
largest margin ever recorded.
"We are thrilled to be working with SAINS in bringing Vectorwise and
Action Apps to South East Asia," said Jason Leonidas, VP of Sales and
Services Asia Pacific. "SAINS have a history of delivering innovative,
award-winning solutions to their clients and we look forward to this continuing

streams of data flowing through organisations and the industry. Action Apps can
be built without IT involvement, and require no training to provide value far
beyond traditional business intelligence applications.
