We are an Apache incubating project, that started in University of Wisconsin - Madison. We just had our first release! Check out
http://quickstep.incubator.apache.org/release/
Our dev email list: dev@quickstep.incubator.apache.org
I'd be interested to ask, since this project identifies as distinguishing itself in terms of performance, would you have any benchmarks on how it fits in with some of its peers?
I saw it also supports both row-oriented and columnar modes. Does that mean this is meant both as a transactional and as an analytics-oriented database?
Thanks for your interest! Our current focus is analytical workloads. We are working in publishing a paper describing the benchmark results. Stay tuned! Quick answer is that we are often 10X faster than PostgreSQL, Spark, and other systems.

If you are interested in knowing more about the storage formats, I would encourage you to read a new blog post about it - http://quickstep.incubator.apache.org/guides/2017/03/30/stor...
