Recently, MariaDB has expanded by adding MariaDB ColumnStore, a columnar storage engine that supports a wide variety of analytic use cases.

MariaDB ColumnStore provides high performance through parallel and distributed data loading and query execution. Based on MariaDB Server, it enables you to process big data analytics with the power of SQL while sporting enterprise grade security and the freedom of open source.

In this presentation, we will provide you with an introduction to the capabilities available in MariaDB ColumnStore and discuss various use cases.

In the next major version of MariaDB ColumnStore (about to be released!) you will gain the ability to stream data sources through a bulk data loading SDK, as well as the ability to support text and blob types, user defined aggregate and window functions, and much more!
