Name

Description

An online MPP (Massively Parallel Processing) data warehousing service based on Greenplum

Analytic DBMS for real-time computations and queries

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.

Embeddable document-store database library with JSON representation of queries (in MongoDB style)

Multi-storage database for search, including full-text search.

Primary database model

Relational DBMS

a hierachical model (tree) can be imposed

Object oriented DBMS

Document store

Search engine

Secondary database models

Graph DBMS

Time Series DBMS
