CrateDB is very promising. It's not acid though.

Another potential of to use zombodb (haven't tried it myself).

Yep, CrateDB is not ACID but has eventual consistency at the row level.

I think for some use cases it's fine that some inserts are not visible in search results immediately. Also, once could tweak refresh_interval or use explicit refresh for "must be visible" inserts.
