Yaacomo seems to be discontinued and is removed from the DB-Engines ranking

Description

Multi-model database supporting relational and graph data models and built upon PostgreSQL

A distributed, RESTful modern search and analytics engine based on Apache Lucene

Elasticsearch lets you perform and combine many types of searches such as structured, unstructured, geo, and metric

An enterprise-level distributed HTAP open source database based on PostgreSQL

Popular in-memory data platform used as a cache, message broker, and database that can be deployed on-premises, across clouds, and hybrid environments

Redis focuses on performance so most of its design decisions prioritize high performance and very low latencies.

OpenCL based in-memory RDBMS, designed for efficiently utilizing the hardware via parallel computing
