Editorial information provided by DB-Engines

Name

Description

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

All 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.

Multi-storage database for search, including full-text search.

RDF4J is a Java framework for processing RDF data, supporting both memory-based and a disk-based storage.

Distributed, fault tolerant key-value store

Primary database model

Document store

with version 6.5
Graph DBMS
RDF store
Vector DBMS

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

Secondary database models

Spatial DBMS

Graph DBMS

Time Series DBMS

using the Manticore Columnar Library
