Mesa: Geo-Replicated, Near Real-Time, Scalable Data Warehousing

Summary: Geo-replicated, near real-time analytics warehouse for petabyte-scale measurement data, handling millions of row updates per second and billions of queries daily. Guarantees consistent, repeatable query answers across datacenters and during datacenter outages, highlighting end-to-end scalability, availability, and fault tolerance.
