MIT Impact
summary
Ten-year arc: C-Store/Vertica establishes a column-store blueprint that forces every major analytic DB to adopt columnar execution and claims ~100x speedups on analytics; H-Store/VoltDB extracts in-memory OLTP design, becomes commercial products and shows dramatic transaction performance gains. Multiple startups spin out and re-seed the Boston DB ecosystem. Communication style is blunt and polarizing but effective at changing agendas. Repeatable startup pattern: find huge incumbent flaw, build a simpler system.
