Editorial information provided by DB-Engines

Name

Description

A real-time data warehousing service that can process petabytes of data with high concurrency and low latency. It is fully compatible with the MySQL protocol.

A RDF storage and query DBMS, shipped as an optional-use component of the Apache Jena framework

Open-source Time Series DBMS and monitoring system

Popular in-memory data platform used as a cache, message broker, and database that can be deployed on-premises, across clouds, and hybrid environments

Redis focuses on performance so most of its design decisions prioritize high performance and very low latencies.

An AI-native realtime vector database engine that integrates scalable machine learning models.

Primary database model

Multiple data types and a rich set of operations, as well as configurable data expiration, eviction and persistence

Vector DBMS

Secondary database models

Document store

with RedisJSON
Graph DBMS

with RedisGraph
Spatial DBMS
Search engine
