WTF? Vertica is no longer part of HP?

Wow. So Vertica is no longer part of HP?

So what are we supposed to do with our current installation? Is Vertica going away?

This move has me worried also. We are thinking of increasing our licence size, but now I am not sure if we should if Vertica will be discontinued. But, I really do not think that is possible?
Thanks,
Juliette

Glad to see others are concerned. We invested big in Vertica and trusted the HP brand. Never heard of the new company :cry:

Hi,

This is the first I am hearing of this. We also have invested a lot of resources in Vertica. HP can not possibly discontinue it!

I'll contact support to find out what is going on.

I have to weigh in on this ... I love the title "UK tech firm swoops on HP software unit..."

At least the new sales team will have sexy accents :)

Julie, you mentioned Vertica will be discontinued? Is that true?
