Editorial information provided by DB-Engines

Name

Description

A fully managed Wide Column Store for large quantities of semi-structured data with real-time access

Enterprise-class SQL-on-Hadoop solution, powered by Apache Trafodion

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.

Distributed, fault tolerant key-value store

SADAS Engine is a columnar DBMS specifically designed for high performance in data warehouse environments

Primary database model

Wide column store

Relational DBMS

Key-value store

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

Key-value store

with links between data sets and object tags for the creation of secondary indexes
