For anyone else too lazy to read the slides to find out what NewSQL is, this is slide 13:

    NewSQL: definition

    "A DBMS that delivers the scalability and flexibility 
    promised by NoSQL while retaining the support for SQL 
    queries and/or ACID, or to improve performance for 
    appropriate workloads."

Is there any open-source/free newsql db ?

Slide 27. VoltDB.

Or use posgres-xc, or mariadb 10 with galera and maxscale. Postgres has JSON storage. MariaDBB has dynamic and virtual columns, and the CONNECT engine which can now directly create new or edit existing JSON files using the SQL interface, instead of dedicated functions for JSON manipulation.

voltdb free has no HA

postgres-xc/xl has no HA

Maxscale looks like it doesn't yet offer sharding

Better one is on the next slide:

- SQL as a primary interface

- ACID support for transactions

- Non-locking architecture

- High per-node performance

- Scalable, shared nothing architecture
