Daniel Abadi is the Darnell-Kanal Professor of Computer Science at University of Maryland, College Park[1] and was named an ACM Fellow in 2020.[2] His primary area of research is database systems. He is known for his contributions to distributed databases, column-store databases, deterministic databases, graph databases, and stream databases. Specifically, he developed the storage and query execution engines of the C-Store (column-oriented database) prototype, which was commercialized by Vertica and later acquired by Hewlett-Packard in 2011. His HadoopDB research on fault tolerant scalable analytical database systems was commercialized by Hadapt and acquired by Teradata in 2014.[citation needed]
Abadi was the first to describe the PACELC theorem in a 2010 blog post. PACELC, a response to the CAP theorem, was proved formally in 2018 in a SIGACT News article.[3]
Abadi currently is an advisor for FaunaDB.[4] Abadi was a recipient of the VLDB Test of Time Award for a 2009 publication titled HadoopDB: an architectural hybrid of MapReduce and DBMS technologies for analytical workloads.[5]
