Name

ToroDB seems to be discontinued. Therefore it is excluded from the DB-Engines Ranking.

Description

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

dBase was one of the first databases with a development environment on PC's. Its latest version dBase V is still sold as dBase classic, which needs a DOS Emulation. The up-to-date product is dBase plus.

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.

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

A MongoDB-compatible JSON document store, built on top of PostgreSQL
