Description

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

Fauna provides a web-native interface, with support for GraphQL and custom business logic that integrates seamlessly with the rest of the serverless ecosystem. The underlying globally distributed storage and compute platform is fast, consistent, and reliable, with a modern security infrastructure.

Hawkular metrics is the metric storage of the Red Hat sponsored Hawkular monitoring system. It is based on Cassandra.

RDF4J is a Java framework for processing RDF data, supporting both memory-based and a disk-based storage.
