Description

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

Microsoft Access combines a backend RDBMS (JET / ACE Engine) with a GUI frontend for data manipulation and queries.

The Access frontend is often used for accessing other datasources (DBMS, Excel, etc.)

Globally distributed, horizontally scalable, multi-model database service

Open-source Time Series DBMS and monitoring system

OpenCL based in-memory RDBMS, designed for efficiently utilizing the hardware via parallel computing

Primary database model
