AsterixDB is a BDMS (Big Data Management System) with a rich feature set that sets it apart from other Big Data platforms. Its feature set makes it well-suited to modern needs such as web data warehousing and social data storage and analysis. AsterixDB has: - * A semistructured NoSQL style data model (ADM) resulting from extending JSON with object database ideas - * Two expressive and declarative query languages (SQL++ and AQL) that support a broad range of queries and analysis over semistructured data - * A parallel runtime query execution engine, Apache Hyracks, that has been scale-tested on up to 1000+ cores and 500+ disks - * Partitioned LSM-based data storage and indexing to support efficient ingestion and management of semistructured data - * Support for query access to externally stored data (e.g., data in HDFS) as well as to data stored natively by AsterixDB - * A rich set of primitive data types, including spatial and temporal data in addition to integer, floating point, and textual data - * Secondary indexing options that include B+ trees, R trees, and inverted keyword (exact and fuzzy) index types - * Support for fuzzy and spatial queries as well as for more traditional parametric queries - * Basic transactional (concurrency and recovery) capabilities akin to those of a NoSQL store +- __Data model__ +A semistructured NoSQL style data model (ADM) resulting from extending JSON with object database ideas + +- __Query language__ +Two expressive and declarative query languages (SQL++ and AQL) that support a broad range of queries and analysis over semistructured data + +- __Scalability__ +A parallel runtime query execution engine, Apache Hyracks, that has been scale-tested on up to 1000+ cores and 500+ disks + +- __Native storage__ +Partitioned LSM-based data storage and indexing to support efficient ingestion and management of semistructured data + +- __External storage__ +Support for query access to externally stored data (e.g., data in HDFS) as well as to data stored natively by AsterixDB + +- __Data types__ +A rich set of primitive data types, including spatial and temporal data in addition to integer, floating point, and textual data + +- __Indexing__ +Secondary indexing options that include B+ trees, R trees, and inverted keyword (exact and fuzzy) index types + +- __Transactions__ +Basic transactional (concurrency and recovery) capabilities akin to those of a NoSQL store Learn more about AsterixDB at [http://asterixdb.apache.org] (http://asterixdb.apache.org) -- To view, visit https://asterix-gerrit.ics.uci.edu/1479 To unsubscribe, visit https://asterix-gerrit.ics.uci.edu/settings Gerrit-MessageType: newchange Gerrit-Change-Id: I93b4eca1ef9a27dc2f14cd4a0e4bb384159731ce Gerrit-PatchSet: 1 Gerrit-Project: asterixdb Gerrit-Branch: master Gerrit-Owner: Yingyi Bu <[email protected]>
