System Properties Comparison Apache Doris vs. Cachelot.io vs. DuckDB vs. InterSystems Caché vs. Redis

Editorial information provided by DB-Engines

Name

Caché is a deprecated database engine which is substituted with InterSystems IRIS. It therefore is removed from the DB-Engines Ranking.

Description

An MPP-based analytics DBMS embracing the MySQL protocol

In-memory caching system

An embeddable, in-process, column-oriented SQL OLAP RDBMS

A multi-model DBMS and application server

Popular in-memory data platform used as a cache, message broker, and database that can be deployed on-premises, across clouds, and hybrid environments

Redis focuses on performance so most of its design decisions prioritize high performance and very low latencies.

Primary database model

Relational DBMS

Key-value store

Relational DBMS
