Description

High performance, persistent RDF store with additional support for Graph DBMS

An in-memory DBMS combining transactional and analytical processing to handle the aggregation of ever-changing data.

Scalable TimeSeries DBMS based on HBase with integrated rule engine and visualization

CockroachDB is a distributed database architected for modern cloud applications. It is wire compatible with PostgreSQL and backed by a Key-Value Store, which is either RocksDB or a purpose-built derivative, called Pebble.

Embeddable persistent key-value store optimized for fast storage (flash and RAM)

Primary database model

Document store

with version 6.5
