Alenka is a modern analytical database engine written to take advantage of vector based processing and high bandwidth of modern GPUs.
Features include:
Vector-based processing CUDA programming model allows a single operation to be applied to an entire set of data at once.
Self optimizing compression Ultra fast compression and decompression performed directly inside GPU
Column-based storage Minimize disk I/O by only accessing the relevant data
Fast database loads Data load times measured in minutes, not in hours.
Open source and free
