Created as commercial project in 2013, FoundationDB has been acquired by Apple in March 2015 and was withdrawn from the market. As a consequence, the product was removed from the DB-Engines ranking. In April 2018, Apple open-sourced FoundationDB and it therefore reappears in the ranking.
DescriptionA complete real-time data logging service that supports collection, consumption, shipping, search, and analysis of logs.Ordered key-value store. Core features are complimented by layers.Widely used in-process key-value storeIndustry standard data logging and graphing tool for time series data.
