Metapa - PostgreSQL/Linux clustering for BI

Saw that these guys had raised some more VC money, and made an acquisition.  Anyone from the company on the lists?
(Probablybest to reply only to -advocacy, but wanted to cast the net wide). 

From their website (www.metapa.com):

Metapa CDB is an enterprise Java software application running on Linux. Key aspects of the CDB architecture include:

* Built on open standards.
* Based on a shared-nothing architecture.
* Advanced SQL parallelization engine supports predicate-based partitioning and query acceleration.
* Based on a database-agnostic framework allowing clustering capability for different RDBMs, initially supporting
PostgreSQL.
* Standards based client interface (JDBC/ODBC/DBI).
* Custom low-latency, preemptable protocol on top of TCP.
* Purpose-built from the ground up to increase the performance of "star-schema" data models typical in today's
demandingdecision support systems.
