DescriptionOpen-source analytics data store designed for sub-second OLAP queries on high dimensionality and high cardinality datadBase was one of the first databases with a development environment on PC's. Its latest version dBase V is still sold as dBase classic, which needs a DOS Emulation. The up-to-date product is dBase plus.DBMS for the Web with a mechanism to push updated query results to applications in realtime.Riak TS is a distributed NoSQL database optimized for time series data and based on Riak KVIndustry standard data logging and graphing tool for time series data. RRD is an acronym for round-robin database. infoThe data is stored in a circular buffer, thus the system storage footprint remains constant over time.
