I am building a whole new kind of general purpose data management system that does a bunch of file system and database functions. It is currently in open beta (www.didgets.com) and anyone can download and try it out in just a few minutes.
It can't do everything yet that a full-functioned database like PostgreSQL, MS SQL Server, or MySql can do, but it is exceptionally fast and has a bunch of unique features. My benchmarks for hundreds of queries against some pretty big tables (e.g. 100M rows, 100+ columns) show it can be up to 10x faster.
It is a columnar store with a flexible schema so it can easily handle Json data where a single column is an array of multiple values. It creates a 3D table where each column/row intersection can have multiple levels. It is really easy to drill down to do analytics against subsets of a big table (e.g. only customers in California).
It also accomplishes its query speeds without needing separate indexes against any column(s). You get blazing speeds after creating a table and importing its data no matter what column values you query against.
The website (www.Didgets.com) has some short demo videos that display what it can do and how fast it runs.
