Installing HP Vertica software for third-party tool integration
Third-party products let you access your HP Vertica database using one of our supported client
drivers. You can use many third-party tools with HP Vertica. For a list of HP Vertica partners and
the tools they provide, see http://www.vertica.com/partners/.
While you can configure many third-party tools to work with HP Vertica through standard client
connections, HP provides additional software to help with integration of the following products:
Informatica — To use HP with the plug-in for the Informatica PowerCenter, see HP Vertica
Plug-in for Informatica Guide.
Microsoft — To integrate your HP Vertica server with an environment that includes Microsoft
components previously installed on your system (for example, Microsoft Visual Studio and
Microsoft SQL Server), see the HP Vertica Connectivity Pack Guide.
NOTE:
Each third-party tool may use different drivers for connecting to HP Vertica. For details
and requirements, refer to the vendor documentation for the tool you want to use.

Learn about the optional modules that HP provides for HP
Vertica clients.
Managing load balancing for client connections
Each client connection to an HP Vertica host in the cluster requires a small overhead in memory
and processor time. Many client connections to a single host can affect database performance.
When you use connection load balancing, HP Vertica automatically spreads the overhead of client
connections across the cluster by having hosts redirect connections to other hosts. For details, see
Connection Load Balancing in the
Managing database resources
To maximize performance, HP Vertica uses the maximum available CPU and memory resources.
The HP CS300 Vertica is optimized to run the database on dedicated servers for large data sets
of complex workloads.
