Hypertable is an open source database system inspired by publications on the design of Google's BigTable. The project is based on experience of engineers who were solving large-scale data-intensive tasks for many years.

Hypertable runs on top of a distributed file system such as the Apache Hadoop DFS, GlusterFS, or the Kosmos File System (KFS). It is written almost entirely in C++.

Sponsors

Hypertable has been developed as an in-house software at Zvents Inc. In January 2009, Baidu, the leading Chinese language search engine, became a project sponsor.
