Description

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

Highly scalable database system, designed for managing session and subscriber data in modern mobile communication networks

A high-performance, column-oriented SQL DBMS for online analytical processing (OLAP) that uses all available system resources to their full potential to process each analytical query as fast as possible. It is available as both an open-source software and a cloud offering.

Fauna provides a web-native interface, with support for GraphQL and custom business logic that integrates seamlessly with the rest of the serverless ecosystem. The underlying globally distributed storage and compute platform is fast, consistent, and reliable, with a modern security infrastructure.

A Graph DBMS optimized for distributed clusters

It was forked from the latest code base of Titan in January 2017
