Hi Shuai, Everyone

It's worth a look at a few projects @ LocationTech too. There's a nice 
community growing around these.

list coming soon

Glad to help connect anyone who might be interested.

Kind regards,

I think most of them are designed for failover, and they might not be able to stand up with the huge data size and high performance demands. the case is quite alike in oracle and db2 spatial, i think.
