Description

Flash-optimized In-memory NoSQL Database

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

Widely used RDBMS

RDF4J is a Java framework for processing RDF data, supporting both memory-based and a disk-based storage.

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.
