DescriptionOLTP - DBMS for mainframes and Linux/Unix/Windows environments infoused typically together with the Natural programming platformAll 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.Fully vectorized database across both GPUs and CPUsScalable, distributed, serverless MySQL database platform built on top of VitessA complete, distributed, parallel graph computing platform supporting web-scale data analytics in real-time
