Description

JavaScript DBMS library

All data is stored inside objects which are linked by so-called link attributes. Objects consist of classes which can be extended and de-extended at runtime. Graphs can be defined with a struct.

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

TimeSeries DBMS specialized on timestamped geo data based on LevelDB or HBase

A general purpose database with bitemporal SQL and Datalog and graph queries
