I am glad to hear in a presentation from Vertica, that they will be releasing their product for free use under a certain data set size. I do not know if this is intended to distinguish developers from production systems or so that smaller companies can run the product for free (and help establish a user base).

Also, I am evaluating Spotfire DXP as well as the upcoming features of QlikView 8. I’ll post a review of both when time and/or NDAs permit.
