RubatoDB, a NewSQL system developed at the University of Alberta and Shanghai Shifang Software, provides the same scalable performance of NoSQL systems while still maintaining the ACID guarantees of a classical database, with following distinct features.
- It uses SQL as the primary language with all the popular features such as concurrency control, secondary indexes, integrity constraints, stored procedures, and triggers.
- It runs in the cloud or on a collection of commodity servers with scalability.
- It supports both ACID and BASE properties.
- It uses various MySQL interfaces for client-server communication.
- It provides high availability using the log-based local replication.
It is designed to be a highly available and extremely scalable system.
