Description

Application development environment with integrated database management system

data warehouse software for querying and managing large distributed datasets, built on Hadoop

An open source graph database built for real-time streaming and compatible with Neo4j

Industry standard data logging and graphing tool for time series data. RRD is an acronym for round-robin database.

The data is stored in a circular buffer, thus the system storage footprint remains constant over time.

NewSQL database with distributed OLTP and SQL
