    Great video man. I like a mix of column (for logging, source of truth) and table based RDBMS and also documented oriented (which could be either row or column) for quick trashy dirty data that makes you blush when you look at it too long.
    But I've seen columns used for quick trashy data - where sums or map reduce is the highest priority and it blows everything else away. I am digging ScyllaDB lately.

    13:35 Aggregates read more than you need. Only if you don't have indexes on the columns you query and if your core business is querying that data then you will have that indexed anyway. Also: if the amount of reads becomes a problem the first thing you do is de-normalize that value into a separate table.
    This is where database monitorring becomes essential, a nice topic for a ten-part series that will blow your viewers minds :-)
    I'd change the pro's and con's to "what kind of applications benefit from this." because every point you mention has some serious vaceats, related issues and known workarounds.

      @@minscj Hi, the solution we went is proprietery, so I can't really go into details. I can however suggest that you take a look at the concept of apache arrow. www.dremio.com/announcements/introducing-apache-arrow/ has a nice diagram. We went very low level and didn't use many of the existing open-source abstraction layers. It all came down to understanding how the GPU's processing cycle works and the alignment of the columnar data to said cycle.

      For instance, PostgreSQL stores these sequences of values in tuple storage, one for each column in the table. The values are serialised and packed together to form the tuple. When querying data from a table, PostgreSQL uses the stored column names in the system catalogs to interpret the tuples' content correctly. The column names are used by the query planner and executor to map the data values from the tuple storage to their respective columns based on their positions in the tuple.

    Good video but a couple small things. I think the video was slower than it needed to be. Like too many tangent and repetition. We can pause and go back and forth so no need to artificially slow it down. Also i think for this topic leaving out indexes does not make sense. Almost no one is going to choose to use a column oriented db before trying indexes.

    omg, why only you can explain complicated problems in easy words!
    Tutorials always say "NoSql is good for fast write, scalable, not suitable for complicated query",
    but no one explain clearly as you! Column based NoSql is just for simple data write and AGGREGATE query. One example is number of likes of a video.
    Just define a simple table, (video_id, user_like_id), then sum(user_like_id), this scenario is the best for NoSQl.
    Or sensor data, not complicated(can tolerate write slow), but lots of aggregate query, like min(), max(), average().
