AsterixDB was originally conceived at the University of California, Irvine. It is a full-fledged NoSQL DBMS that provides ACID guarantees. It is a scalable, open source BDMS.
With various storage and indexing support options, including managed datasets, external datasets, and secondary indexes, AsterixDB is very flexible and has a fast data-consumption rate.
It extends object-oriented data and JSON for easy processing of data of the semi-structured form. For easy processing, it can construct clusters for distributed processing, and can be extended to more than 1,000 cores and 500 discs.
