System Properties Comparison Alibaba Cloud MaxCompute vs. Apache Jena - TDB vs. IRONdb vs. RDF4J vs. Teradata Aster

Editorial information provided by DB-Engines

Name

IRONdb seems to be discontinued. Therefore it is excluded from the DB-Engines Ranking.

Teradata Aster has been integrated into other Teradata systems and therefore will be removed from the DB-Engines ranking.

Description

MaxCompute (previously known as ODPS) is a general purpose, fully managed, multi-tenancy data processing platform for large-scale data warehousing

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

A distributed Time Series DBMS with a focus on scalability, fault tolerance and operational simplicity

RDF4J is a Java framework for processing RDF data, supporting both memory-based and a disk-based storage.

Platform for big data analytics on multistructured data sources and types

Primary database model

Relational DBMS

a graph-processing framework is available with the graphs being stored in tables
