Name

Description

Scalable graph database built for online analytics and data harmonization with MPP scaling, high-performance analytical algorithms and reasoning, and virtualization

Wide-column store based on ideas of BigTable and DynamoDB

Optimized for write access

Microsoft Access combines a backend RDBMS (JET / ACE Engine) with a GUI frontend for data manipulation and queries.

The Access frontend is often used for accessing other datasources (DBMS, Excel, etc.)

Fast distributed SQL query engine for big data analytics. Forked from Presto and originally named PrestoSQL
