DB with column store and parallel query execution?












0















I am looking for open-source alternatives to SQL Server Enterprise Edition for a mostly-read analytics workload. The main key features that I'm looking for are




  • Column-oriented storage

  • Parallel query execution - in particular, sorts/group by etc. should use multiple cores, like SQL Server does.

  • Clustering / horizontal scaling options. I am not interested in sharding or shared-nothing as much as I am in being able to add additional CPUs to a single (logical) DB instance.


I looked at PostgreSQL with cstore_fdw, which gets a column-store but individual queries are still single-threaded.



What else should I be looking at?

  • Consider Postgres-XL as well. Needs more machines (in a cluster) to make use of it though.

Depending on your queries, postgresql + citus + cstore_fdw may solve your problems. Citus (with sharding) can parallelize your queries, and cstore_fdw provides columnar storage.
