Why EventQL over other distributed columnar-storage based databases like Redshift, Vertica, Citus, or Hadoop-based ones like Impala and Presto. What does EventQL do better?

Good question!

May be useful to add to Show HN guidelines that it is recommended to add a "Why X" section. Or "How X compares to others in this space".

Without that, it is confusing. Are authors unaware of other solutions in the space? If so, they surely did not build competitive product.

Or maybe authors are aware of other solutions, but don't want to get compared?

Either way, not a good sign.
