More specifically, it's a hacked-up column-store-ized Pg for OLAP and
analytics work. As I understand it Amazon didn't develop it themselves;
they bought/licensed Paraccel ( http://www.paraccel.com/) and customised
to integrated into Amazon's IAM authentication/authorization, usage
accounting, dynamic provisioning, etc.

I find it frustrating that I've never seen an @paraccel email address
here and that few of the other vendors of highly customised Pg offshoots
are contributing back. It's almost enough to make me like the GPL.
