Name

Description

Large scale data warehouse service for use with business intelligence tools

An embeddable, persistent, simple and fast Key-Value Store, written purely in Go.

An open source immutable (append-only) database with cryptographic verification which makes it tamper-resistant and fully auditable.

DBMS for the Web with a mechanism to push updated query results to applications in realtime.

Industry standard data logging and graphing tool for time series data. RRD is an acronym for round-robin database.

The data is stored in a circular buffer, thus the system storage footprint remains constant over time.
