Overview
MariaDB ColumnStore extends MariaDB Enterprise Server with distributed, columnar storage and a massively parallel processing (MPP) shared nothing architecture, transforming it into a standalone or distributed data warehouse for ad hoc SQL queries and advanced analytics without the need to create indexes. With MariaDB ColumnStore running in SkySQL you get a cloud data warehouse and DBaaS in one service.
ColumnStore is available in new release of SkySQL through the ColumnStore Data Warehouse topology. For additional information, see MariaDB SkySQL new release.
ColumnStore is available in previous release of SkySQL through the Multi-Node Analytics and Single Node Analytics topologies. For additional information, see MariaDB SkySQL previous release.
MariaDB Enterprise Server is built on MariaDB Community Server and, with the aid of MariaDB MaxScale database proxy, delivers best-in-class performance, data security, replication, clustering and high availability. MariaDB Enterprise Server can scale from a single node to global scale, for any workload – from systems of record (OLTP) to analytics (OLAP), in any cloud: private, public, hybrid, or multi-cloud.
Enterprise Server is available in new release of SkySQL through the Enterprise Server With Replica(s) topology or Enterprise Server Single Node topology. For additional information, see MariaDB SkySQL new release.
Enterprise Server is available in previous release of SkySQL through the Primary/Replica topology or Single Node Transactions topology. For additional information, see MariaDB SkySQL previous release.
MariaDB SkySQL is a cloud database service (DBaaS) from MariaDB Corporation:
MariaDB SkySQL delivers MariaDB Enterprise Server, MariaDB Xpand, and MariaDB ColumnStore for modern applications
MariaDB SkySQL runs on expert-maintained cloud infrastructure

MariaDB Xpand is chosen by developers when creating large, mission-critical, read/write scale applications which require ACID-level consistency and enterprise-grade reliability. Xpand combines the scalability of a NoSQL database with the robustness of a SQL database. As with MariaDB Enterprise Server and ColumnStore, Xpand is front-ended by MaxScale database proxy for high availability, disaster recovery and enhanced security. Xpand can be deployed in the cloud as a SkySQL database service on AWS or Google Cloud and runs across multiple public cloud regional centers and on-premise for multi-cloud and hybrid operations.
Xpand is available in new release of SkySQL through the Xpand Distributed SQL topology. For additional information, see MariaDB SkySQL new release.
Xpand is available in previous release of SkySQL through the Distributed Transactions topology. For additional information, see MariaDB SkySQL previous release.
