Name

Description

Scalable TimeSeries DBMS based on HBase with integrated rule engine and visualization

All 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.

Key-Value Store with special method for indexing

optimized for high performance using a special indexing method

Cloud or off-cloud analytical database and query engine for structured and semi-structured streaming and batch data. Machine learning platform with built-in algorithms, data preparation capabilities, and model evaluation and management via SQL or Python.
