DescriptionHighly scalable database system, designed for managing session and subscriber data in modern mobile communication networksGlobally distributed, horizontally scalable, multi-model database serviceScalable, ACID-compliant graph database designed with a high-performance distributed cluster architecture, available in self-hosted and cloud offeringsPopular in-memory data platform used as a cache, message broker, and database that can be deployed on-premises, across clouds, and hybrid environments infoRedis focuses on performance so most of its design decisions prioritize high performance and very low latencies.TypeDB is a strongly-typed database with a rich and logical type system and TypeQL as its query language
