Description

Fast and scalable multi-model DBMS, originally forked from OrientDB but most of the code has been rewritten

CockroachDB is a distributed database architected for modern cloud applications. It is wire compatible with PostgreSQL and backed by a Key-Value Store, which is either RocksDB or a purpose-built derivative, called Pebble.

A Java embedded Key-Value Store which extends the Java Map interface

Spatial extension of SQLite

Key-Value Store with special method for indexing

optimized for high performance using a special indexing method

Primary database model

Document store
Graph DBMS
Key-value store
Time Series DBMS

in next version

Secondary database models

Relational DBMS
