It's not just my point of view - it's well known in the research community, and has been for decades.

For FOSS, have a look at MonetDB. For research-oriented systems, look for publications regarding HyperDB or VectorWise/Actian Vector (VectorH in the cluster version). Other commercial offerings are Vertica (formerly C-Store) and SAP Hana.

PostgreSQL is not even something anyone compares against in analytics...

Oh yea, MemSQL and ClickHouse are also indeed relevant and in this category, except that ClickHouse doesn't support all of SQL and any table structure, so it's not a full-fledged DBMS.
