DescriptionScalable TimeSeries DBMS based on HBase with integrated rule engine and visualizationNative high-speed multi-model DBMS for relational and key-value store data simultaneously accessible through SQL and NoSQL APIs.Industry standard data logging and graphing tool for time series data. RRD is an acronym for round-robin database. infoThe data is stored in a circular buffer, thus the system storage footprint remains constant over time.A lightweight, in-memory graph engine that serves as a reference implementation of the TinkerPop3 API
