DescriptionScalable TimeSeries DBMS based on HBase with integrated rule engine and visualizationAll data is stored inside objects which are linked by so-called link attributes. Objects consist of classes which can be extended and de-extended at runtime. Graphs can be defined with a struct.Datomic builds on immutable values, supports point-in-time queries and uses 3rd party systems for durabilityRDBMS database and synchronization technologies for server, desktop, remote office, and mobile environmentsIn-memory computing platform with a flexible data schema for efficiently building high-performance applications
