Editorial information provided by DB-Engines

Name

SAP Advantage Database Server seems to be discontinued. Therefore it is excluded from the DB-Engines Ranking.

Description

A stable, reliable, and cost-effective online high-performance time series database service

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

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.

Low-cost RDBMS with access to ISAM and FoxPro data structures

MultiValue database and application server with SQL mapping layer and meta database capabilities

Primary database model

Time Series DBMS

RDF store

Key-value store

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

Relational DBMS

Multivalue DBMS

Secondary database models

Document store

with RedisJSON
Graph DBMS

with RedisGraph
Spatial DBMS
Search engine

with RediSearch
Time Series DBMS
