Name

Description

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

A multi-model, scalable, distributed NoSQL database, designed to provide highly reliable, flexible, and available data management across a configurable set of storage nodes

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.

SADAS Engine is a columnar DBMS specifically designed for high performance in data warehouse environments

Cloud-based data warehousing service for structured and semi-structured data
