Sand Technology’s Nucleus Exploration Suite is designed to overcome the
problem that conventional data warehousing and OLAP tools cannot handle
complex queries and analytics without either incurring very poor performance
or requiring an inordinate expenditure on parallel hardware. And this is
particularly true when the nature of those queries is not predictable in
advance. By using an alternate technology (Nucleus is a column-based
relational database) Sand offers a solution that can significantly enhance the
performance of such queries (often by orders of magnitude) while not
requiring expensive hardware.
