Distributed SQL database are well-suited
for digital transformations initiatives
15
✓ SQL. It isn’t back, it never went away
✓ Horizontally scalable. Modern distributed
applications require this
✓ ACID guarantees. When eventual consistency
doesn’t cut it
✓ Masterless architecture. Ideally-suited for cloud
environments

Summary
▪ Digital transformation is real and comes with its own set of drivers/challenges for
which cloud is expected to play a dominate role
▪ Distributed SQL databases are particularly well-suited for digital transformation
initiatives, given their ability to handle high transactional volumes while leverage SQL
querying capabilities and maintaining ACID guarantees
▪ Systems of record are part of a larger digital transformation landscape that requires
integration with systems of engagement and systems of (analysis) intelligence.
