Description

JavaScript DBMS library

An embeddable, persistent, simple and fast Key-Value Store, written purely in Go.

Full-featured RDBMS with a small footprint, either embedded into a Java application or used as a database server.

An open source immutable (append-only) database with cryptographic verification which makes it tamper-resistant and fully auditable.

A Java embedded Key-Value Store which extends the Java Map interface
