by Wikipedia defines the term below: “ NewSQL is a class of relational database management systems that seek to provide the scalability of NoSQL systems for online transaction processing (OLTP) workloads while maintaining the ACID guarantees of a traditional database system.Many enterprise systems that handle high-profile data (e.g., financial and order processing systems) are too large for conventional relational databases, but have transactional and consistency requirements that are not practical for NoSQL systems.
I obviously, and selfishly like that it includes HarperDB, and I think a lot of the players mentioned deserve to be on that list, but Amazon Aurora is by no means a NewSQL database.
You can then search by those other attributes; however, you are searching a copy of that record, not the original.
For example, if I am trying to write to a table that has a billion rows of data, and it has foreign key to a table with a billion rows of data, the RDBMS has to inspect both tables prior to committing the write.
