DescriptionA scale-out RDBMS with evolutionary schema built on Apache HBaseAll data is stored inside objects which are linked by so-called link attributes. Objects consist of classes which can be extended and de-extended at runtime. Graphs can be defined with a struct.Common in IBM host environments, 2 different versions for host and Windows/LinuxA robust multi-value DBMS comprising development tools and middlewareTypeDB is a strongly-typed database with a rich and logical type system and TypeQL as its query language
