Name

Description

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

A global, low-latency, key-value store for applications on Cloudflare with exceptionally high read volumes and low-latency.

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.

Embeddable persistent key-value store optimized for fast storage (flash and RAM)

A lightweight, in-memory graph engine that serves as a reference implementation of the TinkerPop3 API
