I want MPP HTAP where SQL inserts/COPYs store data in three(!) formats: - row-based (low latency insert, fast row-based indexed query for single-row OLTP) - columnar-based (slow inserts/updates, fast aggregates/projections) - iceberg-columnar-based (better OLAP price/performance and less lockin than native columnar) And for SELECTs the query engine picks which storage engine satisfies the query using some SQL extension like DB2 "WAITFORDATA" or TiDB @@tidb_read_staleness or MemSQL columnstore_latency and/or similar signalling for performance-vs-cost preference.

And a common permissioning/datasharing layer so I can share data to external and internal parties who can in turn bring their own compute to make their own latency choices.
