Name

Description

An MPP-based analytics DBMS embracing the MySQL protocol

A distributed in-memory data processing engine, underpinned by a strongly-typed RAM store and a general distributed computation engine

In-memory JavaScript DBMS

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.)

Widely used open source RDBMS

Primary database model

Relational DBMS

Graph DBMS
Key-value store

Document store

Relational DBMS

Key/Value like access via memcached API
