NewSQL is a term that describes the next generation of highly distributed, scalable, memory oriented SQL databases. In this session, we will explore some basic concepts in NewSQL (VMWare SQLFire), translate a traditional “Star” schema to a partitioned schema(scale out design), walk through various SQL usage patterns – simple queries, complex joins, aggregations, stored procedures and explain how they can be more effectively realized in SQLFire through replicated tables, partitioned tables, in-memory or disk resident tables, parallel procedure execution, distributed transactions, etc.
We will also compare and contrast various NewSQL features with traditional SQL.
