Which databases support parallel processing across multiple servers?
- by David
I need a database engine that can utilize multiple servers for processing a single SQL query in parallel. So far I know that this is possible with the some engines, though none of them are feasible for me either because of pricing or missing features. The engines currently known to me are:
MS SQL (enterprise)
DB2 (enterprise)
Oracle (enterprise)
GridSQL
Greenplum
Which other engines have this feature? Do you have any experience with using this feature?
Edit: I have now proposed a method for creating one myself. Any input is welcome.
Edit: I have found another one: Informix Extended Parallel Server
