Definitely they should include D4M and GraphQL [1],[2]. Not only D4M can cater for structured relational data, it's also suitable for non-structured and sparse data in spreadsheet, matrices and graph. It's essentially a generalization of SQL but for all things data. There's also integration of D4M with SciDB [3].
