What is Skytable? Skytable is a cutting-edge NoSQL database that places a strong emphasis on delivering exceptional performance, unmatched flexibility, and unparalleled scalability. With its unique architecture, Skytable is a primarily in-memory, wide-column based database that goes beyond traditional data models*, offering support for additional data models to cater to diverse needs.

Skytable is specifically designed to excel in applications that demand the storage of vast amounts of data, while also requiring lightning-fast performance and minimal latencies. Whether it's for big-data analytics, real-time data processing, or any other data-intensive tasks, Skytable is the ideal choice.

What is a BlueQL?

BlueQL is a query language within Skytable, a scalable NoSQL database. It provides secure data management with features like parameterization and expression contexts. While similar to SQL, it operates within a NoSQL engine, offering unique query execution and evaluation.

It boasts its own custom-built storage engine, which leverages a highly optimized delayed-durability transaction approach, resulting in optimal efficiency. Additionally, Skytable empowers users with its proprietary query language, BlueQL, which is based on SQL but takes it to the next level by enhancing security and flexibility.
