Composable
Building Blocks
Incrementally adopt building blocks for data access, acceleration, search, retrieval, and AI inference, then compose them together to develop apps and agents grounded in data.
SQL Query Federation
Join data across databases, data warehouses, data lakes, and APIs in a single SQL query
Connectors for 30+ modern and legacy sources from Databricks, to MySQL, and CSV files on FTP servers
Industry-standard protocols including ODBC, JDBC, ADBC, HTTP, and Apache Arrow Flight (gRPC)
Data Acceleration
Fast, low-latency, high-concurrency query, search, and AI retrieval
Materialize and accelerate data in-memory or using embedded databases including DuckDB or SQLite
Keep accelerations updated in real-time with Change-Data-Capture (CDC) using Debezium
