Relational Cloud: A Database-as-a-Service for the Cloud
Summary: Relational Cloud is a DBaaS offering workload-aware multi-tenancy, graph-based partitioning for near-linear elastic scaling of transactional workloads, and adjustable SQL-over-encrypted-data (ordering/aggregates/joins). Workload monitoring auto-tunes consolidation, partitioning and security to reduce admin effort and outsourcing cost. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
