DescriptionHigh performance, persistent RDF store with additional support for Graph DBMSAll data is stored inside objects which are linked by so-called link attributes. Objects consist of classes which can be extended and de-extended at runtime. Graphs can be defined with a struct.Native high-speed multi-model DBMS for relational and key-value store data simultaneously accessible through SQL and NoSQL APIs.Scalable in-memory time series database optimized for IoT and Big DataHigh performant column-oriented DBMS for analytic workloads using MySQL or PostgreSQL as a frontend
