What's the story behind greenplum? Is it an old startup that has been bought by pivotal some time ago? I found an article about greenplum raising 20 mln $ in 2008 [1]

I was wondering whether anyone used greenplum in production and with what kind of loads. With today's in-memory fad, I am also interested in whether gp model supports loading everything into memory in a MOLAP fashion.

Greenplum was a startup that was acquired by EMC in 2010. Pivotal is partially an EMC venture, so I guess that's how it ended up in their hands.
