Description

Flash-optimized In-memory NoSQL Database

A RDF storage and query DBMS, shipped as an optional-use component of the Apache Jena framework

A high-performance, column-oriented SQL DBMS for online analytical processing (OLAP) that uses all available system resources to their full potential to process each analytical query as fast as possible. It is available as both an open-source software and a cloud offering.

Fauna provides a web-native interface, with support for GraphQL and custom business logic that integrates seamlessly with the rest of the serverless ecosystem. The underlying globally distributed storage and compute platform is fast, consistent, and reliable, with a modern security infrastructure.

The SAP (Sybase) Adaptive Server Enterprise (ASE) is an enterprise-class RDBMS
