System Properties Comparison Atos Standard Common Repository vs. IBM Cloudant vs. OpenTSDB vs. Redis vs. Teradata Aster

Editorial information provided by DB-Engines

Name

This system has been discontinued and will be removed from the DB-Engines ranking.

Teradata Aster has been integrated into other Teradata systems and therefore will be removed from the DB-Engines ranking.

Description

Highly scalable database system, designed for managing session and subscriber data in modern mobile communication networks

Database as a Service offering based on Apache CouchDB

Scalable Time Series DBMS based on HBase

Popular in-memory data platform used as a cache, message broker, and database that can be deployed on-premises, across clouds, and hybrid environments

Redis focuses on performance so most of its design decisions prioritize high performance and very low latencies.

Platform for big data analytics on multistructured data sources and types

Primary database model

Document store
Key-value store

Document store

Time Series DBMS

Key-value store

Multiple data types and a rich set of operations, as well as configurable data expiration, eviction and persistence

Relational DBMS

Secondary database models
