It offers good functionality, high levels of reliability and stability, a cost-effective licensing model, and is backed up with excellent support.

Use Cases

Delivering Operational Analytics

Actian X creates the perfect platform for adding operational analytics to an existing OLTP system.

  • Expand capabilities of existing applications
  • Add clickstream data to historical customer information
  • Identify targeted add-ons, cross sell, upsell opportunities

Actian X enables operational analytics on a per transaction basis.
