Incorta vs Kudu

[Boris Tyukin <bo...@boristyukin.com>]

Hi guys, I was just reading about incorta. They get a lot of traction and
buzz recently. While they do not explain how it actually works but I got a
feeling their "secret" technology is very similar to Kudu. Just curious if
you looked at it and compared to Kudu/Impala combo. They mentioned their
super duper secret and efficient compaction process.

One difference I've noticed though they say they can do real-time but I
just watched a demo and looks like it is classical batch/incremental
process.

Hi Boris,

I hadn't heard of Incorta before. I'm surprised you mentioned they're
getting traction and buzz.

The site definitely seems light on technical details, so can't really
answer a comparison to Kudu. It does seem like they're more focused on
batch than real-time.
