Strange personally never heard or read about Accelerate before. I think it has the same main problem with generic naming language like Futhark (this very issue already mentioned in a different concurrent post).
As a modern array language, perhaps Accelerate should look into D4M as a basis, it's also started 10+ years ago [1].
D4M is based on math like SQL, specifically associative array algebra but not relational unlike SQL. It's more generic since can it caters to most modern data abstractions including spreadsheets, database tables, matrices, and graphs [2].
You can achieve 100M database inserts per second with D4M and Accumulo more than a decade ago back in 2014 [3].
