I don't know, I'd ask them directly. When I looked at it I was more interested in the throughput and acid compliance aspects of it.

So what is the size limit for voltdb ..?

Totally agree that Cassandra and voltdb fulfill different needs. I would say mysql cluster (ndbd) would be a more appropriate competitor. 50tb? Yes and no - it's designed to integrate with a system called vertica which does scale to that size, but as a stand alone system I don't believe so.

As far as finding its competitors go; If you need acid compliance, Cassandra isn't in the list. If you need 50TB of data, is VoltDB in the list?

I would disagree with that assessment. My take is that Voltdb is a high throughput, fault tolerant transaction processing db as opposed to a caching system or key value store. It's easy to get hung up on the in-memory nature of it but I believe that it is both fault tolerant through redundant copies of the data and fully acid compliant.

Its proper competitors are stuff like redis and memcached.

I saw a tweet about claiming far better performance to Cassandra. After following up, I found out it requires the entire DB to reside in memory across the nodes.

Anybody looked at VoltDB? I haven't dug into it, but curious about it.
