Supports row-oriented storage (where all columns of a row are stored together), column-oriented storage (where columns are stored in groups, allowing for more efficient access and storage of column subsets) and log-structured merge trees (lsm), for sustained throughput under random insert workloads.

includes acid transactions with standard isolation levels and durability at both checkpoint and fine-grained granularity.

can be used as a simple key/value store, but also has a complete schema layer, including indices and projections.
