DescriptionScalable TimeSeries DBMS based on HBase with integrated rule engine and visualizationHigh-performance graph database supporting Semantic Web (RDF/SPARQL) and Graph Database (tinkerpop3, blueprints, vertex-centric) APIs with scale-out and High Availability.dBase was one of the first databases with a development environment on PC's. Its latest version dBase V is still sold as dBase classic, which needs a DOS Emulation. The up-to-date product is dBase plus.RDF4J is a Java framework for processing RDF data, supporting both memory-based and a disk-based storage.Distributed, fault tolerant key-value store
