DescriptionWide-column store based on ideas of BigTable and DynamoDB infoOptimized for write accessA RDF storage and query DBMS, shipped as an optional-use component of the Apache Jena frameworkNative multi-model DBMS for graph, document, key/value and search. All in one engine and accessible with one query language.Popular in-memory data platform used as a cache, message broker, and database that can be deployed on-premises, across clouds, and hybrid environments infoRedis focuses on performance so most of its design decisions prioritize high performance and very low latencies.
