Name

Description

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

All 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.

Hawkular metrics is the metric storage of the Red Hat sponsored Hawkular monitoring system. It is based on Cassandra.

Open source search engine for searching in data from different sources, e.g. relational databases
