I do not agree that NewSQL vendors focus on giving scale-out features to transactional data. The NewSQL market is focusing on giving true ACID support combined with extreme performance, stepping away from the traditional relational structures in databases.

WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 7: USS NEW YORK

Profile America — Wednesday, November 7th.  The Navy's newest amphibious assault ship, the USS New York, was commissioned three years ago today.  Some 6,000 spectators turned out for the ceremony held at the retired aircraft carrier USS Intrepid, now the Sea, Air-and Space Museum in New York Harbor.  The New York is special in that 7½ tons of steel in its bow came from beams salvaged from the wrecked World Trade Center.  The New York can carry a landing force of 800 Marines, along with needed aircraft and landing equipment.  The ship's crew numbers 360.  Most recent figures show U.S. shipbuilders delivered $21.8 billion worth of new ships and repairs in a year.  You can find more facts about America's people, places and economy from the American Community Survey at www.census.gov.
