Sirix sounds like a very interesting system! Is it similar in its internal structure to noms (https://github.com/attic-labs/noms) or Dolt (https://github.com/liquidata-inc/dolt)?

I think S3 is a good match for storing database pages as long as they are immutable. The Vectorized query processing model seems to fit this approach very well (e.g., http://oai.cwi.nl/oai/asset/14075/14075B.pdf) Anyone out there from Snowflake care to answer how Snowflake stores database pages in AWS?

I haven't used BookKeeper or Pulsar myself so I can't comment on how well they might work for distributing an intent log.
