Editorial information provided by DB-Engines

Name

This system has been discontinued and will be removed from the DB-Engines ranking.

GeoSpock seems to be discontinued. Therefore it will be excluded from the DB-Engines ranking.

Description

An enterprise grade, high-performance RDBMS

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

Spatial and temporal data processing engine for extreme data scale

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.

A high performance, scalable Wide Column DBMS
