| SQL is still considered to be a mainstream language for non trivial data processing. Nowadays, |
| the language is no longer a prerogative of relational databases and being supported by |
| databases and platforms of architectures different from the relational one. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| Apache Ignite's SQL level of support is so extensive that the platform is widely used as a |
| full-fledged <b>SQL database</b>. Combining Ignite's SQL capabilities together with its |
| distributed core you get a horizontally scalable, fault tolerant and always available SQL database. |
| </p> |
| |
| <div class="page-heading">Performance and Durability</div> |
| <p> |
| With Ignite <a href="/features/durablememory.html">Durable Memory</a> |
| architecture, data as well as indexes can be stored both in memory and, optionally, on disk. |
| This allows executing distributed SQL operations across different memory layers |
| achieving in-memory performance with the durability of disk. |
| If the <a href="/features/persistence.html">disk layer</a> |
| is disabled Apache Ignite can be utilized as an |
| <a href="/use-cases/database/in-memory-database.html"><b>in-memory</b> database</a>. |

| |
| <div class="page-heading">SQL ANSI-99 Compliance</div> |
| <p> |
| Ignite complies with SQL ANSI-99 standard supporting all <b>SQL</b> and <b>DML</b> commands, |
| including SELECT, UPDATE, INSERT, MERGE, DELETE statements and distributed joins. It also provides |
| support for a subset of <b>DDL</b> commands relevant for distributed SQL databases. |
| </p> |
| |
| <div class="page-heading">Languages and Tools</div> |
| <p> |
| You can interact with Apache Ignite using the SQL language via natively developed APIs for Java, |
| .NET and C++, or via the Ignite <b>JDBC</b> or <b>ODBC</b> drivers. This provides a true |
| cross-platform connectivity from an endless number of SQL tools and programming languages. |
| </p> |
