Name

Description

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

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.

Microsoft Access combines a backend RDBMS (JET / ACE Engine) with a GUI frontend for data manipulation and queries.

The Access frontend is often used for accessing other datasources (DBMS, Excel, etc.)

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