Description

Analytic DBMS for real-time computations and queries

Large scale data warehouse service with append-only tables

Analytic Database platform built on PostgreSQL. Full name is Pivotal Greenplum Database

A logical database in Greenplum is an array of individual PostgreSQL databases working together to present a single database image.

An open source immutable (append-only) database with cryptographic verification which makes it tamper-resistant and fully auditable.

High performant column-oriented DBMS for analytic workloads using MySQL or PostgreSQL as a frontend
