Distributed SQL Summit

Distributed SQL databases are shaking up the decades-old regime of traditional RDBMS. Why? Because it is time to modernize your database to meet the demands of cloud native applications!
Because you shouldn’t have to manually shard your database to scale or suffer downtime when infrastructure fails.

What is Distributed SQL?
Distributed SQL is a revolutionary category of databases for building mission-critical, cloud native applications.
A distributed SQL database is a single logical relational database deployed on a cluster of servers. A distributed SQL database automatically replicates and distributes data across multiple servers. These databases are strongly consistent and support consistency across availability and geographic zones in the cloud.
At a minimum, a distributed SQL database has the following characteristics:
- A SQL API for accessing and manipulating data and objects
- Automatic distribution of data across nodes in a cluster
- Automatic replication of data in a strongly consistent manner
- Distributed query execution
- Distributed ACID transactions
