Description

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

Multi-model DBMS (Document, Graph, Key/Value)

Industry standard data logging and graphing tool for time series data. RRD is an acronym for round-robin database.

The data is stored in a circular buffer, thus the system storage footprint remains constant over time.
