Hypertable has stopped its further development with March 2016 and is removed from the DB-Engines ranking.
DescriptionAn IoT native database with high performance for data management and analysis, deployable on the edge and the cloud and integrated with Hadoop, Spark and FlinkFauna 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.An open source BigTable implementation based on distributed file systems such as HadoopHigh performant column-oriented DBMS for analytic workloads using MySQL or PostgreSQL as a frontendA Graph DBMS optimized for distributed clusters infoIt was forked from the latest code base of Titan in January 2017
