Grid SQL Parallel Query

GridSQL enables organizations to easily meet complex Data Warehousing and Business Intelligence challenges using true grid technology that implements a shared-nothing, distributed data architecture. GridSQL enables OLAP applications to leverage the power of multiple commodity servers while appearing as a single database to the application.

GridSQL is an open source project sponsored by EnterpriseDB and fully integrated into Postgres Plus. Learn More.

GridSQL enables enterprises to:

• Quickly and easily create, maintain, and access very large databases for Business Intelligence and Data Warehousing applications
• Offload reporting from expensive hardware platforms onto an inexpensive grid of commodity hardware, creating significant savings
• Run reporting and other applications with very large datasets, improving organizational decision-making
• Improve organizational productivity and agility by enabling quick access to large amounts of information

Using GridSQL, database performance improves nearly linearly as additional servers are added to the grid.

Because GridSQL is a true grid that distributes data and shares computing resources at the database layer, existing applications run unchanged and application developers can create new applications as if they were accessing a single database on a single server.

GridSQL is a free open source project supported by EnterpriseDB. Learn more.
