Open-source columnar DB for 2B rows, sub-second joins
80/100 commercial intent80/100 confidenceSelf-hosting
The problem, as people describe it
Engineers need a real‑time analytics database that can handle ~2 billion rows with sub‑second aggregation and distributed joins while scaling horizontally. Current options like MemSQL are costly and closed‑source, Crate.io has import bugs, and Citus is tied to Azure. A managed or self‑hosted open‑source alternative would reduce vendor lock and cost.
