Does something similar to RAC exist for other commercial databases like Microsoft SQL Server or IBM DB2?

DB2 yes, SQL Server no.

There are some cloud databases that scale horizontally but they often only support a subset of SQL, or require careful design to avoid creating hot tablets due to using a shared nothing design e.g. due to hot read nodes.
