Name

Description

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

All data is stored inside objects which are linked by so-called link attributes. Objects consist of classes which can be extended and de-extended at runtime. Graphs can be defined with a struct.

A widely adopted Java cache with tiered storage options

Cloud-based data warehousing service for structured and semi-structured data

Spatial extension of SQLite

Primary database model
