Not a lot of info on their website. But it strikes me as similar to VoltDB (http://voltdb.com/). Especially the emphasis on OLTP queries.

Is it based on the same paradigm of single-threaded serial access? What differentiates it from VoltDB? Is it the MySQL compatibility and ability to use ad-hoc queries instead of stored procedures? (If so, how do you make that bit fast?)
