1. generates test data that meets business requirements ( i.e use the custom values for columns whereever we need business specific values , distribution etc ) . one example can be - if there is a status column , that values to use while generating data and what distribution to use for each value. 

2. generate csv's with custom delimiter

Hi,
You are baseclity looking for data simulation tools .

in most of the case companies build their own tools (in most of the cases the performance engineer responsible for that ) .

The problem you raise is not pure vertica issue , the same challenge exists in many areas and its not nessetly related to database .

 

You can start look into this nice project https://github.com/UptakeTech/ds-Data-Simulator   and customize it for your needs

I hope you will find it usfule

 

Thanks
