I've never hear of this database, but it looks sort of interesting.
- assface 10y agoIt's over 15 years old.
- Xorlev 10y agoStill, it suffers from a lack of visibility. I'd only heard about it because one of our DB vendors in the past had mentioned integrating with it. That said, it's had a lot of interesting development in the last few years (e.g. ocelot which tries to hardware accelerate operations via OpenCL).
- tingletech 10y agoyea, I noticed that when I looked at the site. I've still never heard of it.

- dangoldin 10y agoIt's nice if you're looking for an alternative to a paid columnar database (ie Vertica, Redshift). I used it on a side project and it performed surprisingly well for large queries (think sum/group by across tens of millions of rows). Not sure how it works on a production system.
