Name

Description

Large scale data warehouse service for use with business intelligence tools

A RDF storage and query DBMS, shipped as an optional-use component of the Apache Jena framework

Datomic builds on immutable values, supports point-in-time queries and uses 3rd party systems for durability

Fauna provides a web-native interface, with support for GraphQL and custom business logic that integrates seamlessly with the rest of the serverless ecosystem. The underlying globally distributed storage and compute platform is fast, consistent, and reliable, with a modern security infrastructure.
