- Leaning keep. I recalled the name from articles on my primary technology news site, and the database was covered in several articles. It also seems to be mentioned in more recent books on databases (e.g., [1], [2], [3]) along with other major software, all of which have corresponding articles on Wikipedia.

- Clear keep. Major product from a well-known vendor, apparently the leader in its niche, coverage from major IT news sources. JulesH (talk) 20:08, 12 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. Note: In 2010, the VectorWise technology was acquired by Ingres Corporation. Ingres Corporation later rebranded to Actian Corporation in 2011. Addition sources are available using search terms with these company names.

- Information Week – Ingres Unveils VectorWise Database Engine
- Incisive Financial Publishing – Ingres launches VectorWise database engine
- (Short article) The Wall Street Journal – Database-Software Firm Tries 'Action Apps'
