What would you like to see from a native Elixir database?

After reading this thread and posts #77 - #87 about gaps in the elixir ecosystem, (also ExESDB), I’m convinced that creation of a new state-of-the-art BEAM-native database is worth considering.

Not only it makes perfect sense from technical standpoint, but also I would be confident of it succeeding under @josevalim’s leadership after him being open to challenging projects like Gradual set-theoretic types, Tidewave, Numerical Elixir and Livebook.

You’ve done plenty of initial exploration. If I can, I suggest that you now focus on creating a proof of concept (if possible) and crafting a great technical presentation (for an IRL event) which could be a starting point for evaluating undertaking the most ambitious elixir project yet.
