Name

Description

An embeddable, persistent, simple and fast Key-Value Store, written purely in Go.

BigchainDB is scalable blockchain database offering decentralization, immutability and native assets

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.

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

Spark SQL is a component on top of 'Spark Core' for structured data processing
