SuperDB is an open-source analytical SQL database that eliminates the traditional divide between relational tables and JSON data. By making dynamic typing the architectural foundation while maintaining strong type safety, SuperDB enables developers to query heterogeneous data without the fragility of schema inference or the complexity of separate type systems. Currently in active development by Brimdata, the system shows significant promise for organizations dealing with mixed structured and semi-structured data.
SuperDB's revolutionary approach centers on its super-structured data model, where every value carries its own fully-specified type information. Unlike traditional databases that require predefined schemas or suffer from brittle schema inference, SuperDB treats data as self-describing sequences of typed values. This means a single q
