Trafodion

Trafodion is an open-source webscale SQL-on-Hadoop DBMS solution that extends and builds on Apache Hadoop. Its name is the Welsh word for "transactions" (pronounced "Tra-vod-eee-on") because the developers wanted to emphasize the fact that one specific way it extended Hadoop was through guaranteed transactional integrity. By doing so, it targets big data transactional and operational workloads rather than analytic workloads. It is ACID-compliant and has fully-functional ANSI SQL support

History

Hewlett-Packard Company launched Trafodion as an open-source project in 2014, and a version was released in early 2015 before it became a part of the Apache Incubator in May 2015. In January of 2018, it was established as an Apache Top-Level Project.
