Name

ToroDB seems to be discontinued. Therefore it is excluded from the DB-Engines Ranking.

Description

A scalable, multi-tenant, MPP-architectured RDBMS for OLTP and OLAP operations, highly compatible with Oracle

CockroachDB is a distributed database architected for modern cloud applications. It is wire compatible with PostgreSQL and backed by a Key-Value Store, which is either RocksDB or a purpose-built derivative, called Pebble.

Widely used open source RDBMS

A MongoDB-compatible JSON document store, built on top of PostgreSQL

TypeDB is a strongly-typed database with a rich and logical type system and TypeQL as its query language

Primary database model

Relational DBMS

Key/Value like access via memcached API

Document store

Graph DBMS
Relational DBMS

Often described as a 'hyper-relational' database, since it implements the 'Entity-Relationship Paradigm' to manage complex data structures and ontologies.

Secondary database models

Document store
Spatial DBMS
