Description

OLTP - DBMS for mainframes and Linux/Unix/Windows environments

used typically together with the Natural programming platform

Highly scalable database system, designed for managing session and subscriber data in modern mobile communication networks

All data is stored inside objects which are linked by so-called link attributes. Objects consist of classes which can be extended and de-extended at runtime. Graphs can be defined with a struct.

Enterprise-class SQL-on-Hadoop solution, powered by Apache Trafodion

Embeddable persistent key-value store optimized for fast storage (flash and RAM)
