A columnar DBMS is an implementation of the relational theory, but with a twist. The data storage layer does not contain records. It contains a grouping of columns.
The columnar approach speeds up the native performance of analytic queries. There is no difference in the SQL or data access tool used to interface with the data or the logical data modeling. The columnar approach is not new, however its time may have come as analytic processing becomes a business imperative.
Learn about the columnar orientation and how it can be effective for your needs. This is the orientation of vendors such as Vertica, ParAccel, Sybase IQ, InfoBright, Exasol, VectorWise and MonetDB, as well as an optional layer in the 2010 release of Microsoft SQL Server.
