DescriptionJavaScript DBMS libraryAll 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.An ultra-fast, open source Key-value store fully compatible with Redis API, modules, and protocolsA widely used distributed, scalable search engine based on Apache LuceneA lightweight, in-memory graph engine that serves as a reference implementation of the TinkerPop3 API
