Editorial information provided by DB-Engines

Name

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

High performance Time Series DBMS

An enterprise-class RDBMS compatible with PostgreSQL and Oracle and widely used in China.

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.

Primary database model

Relational DBMS

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

RDF store

Time Series DBMS
Vector DBMS

Relational DBMS

Key-value store

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

Secondary database models

Relational DBMS

Document store
Spatial DBMS
