Editorial information provided by DB-Engines

Name

This system has been discontinued and 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

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.)

Application development environment with integrated database management system

Embeddable persistent key-value store optimized for fast storage (flash and RAM)

In-memory computing platform with a flexible data schema for efficiently building high-performance applications

Primary database model
