System Properties Comparison Apache Jena - TDB vs. dBASE vs. Drizzle vs. ToroDB vs. WakandaDB

Editorial information provided by DB-Engines

Name

Drizzle has published its last release in September 2012. The open-source project is discontinued and Drizzle is excluded from the DB-Engines ranking.

ToroDB seems to be discontinued. Therefore it is excluded from the DB-Engines Ranking.

Description

A RDF storage and query DBMS, shipped as an optional-use component of the Apache Jena framework

dBase 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.

MySQL fork with a pluggable micro-kernel and with an emphasis of performance over compatibility.

A MongoDB-compatible JSON document store, built on top of PostgreSQL

WakandaDB is embedded in a server that provides a REST API and a server-side javascript engine to access data
