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.

Widely used open source RDBMS

Application development environment with integrated database management system

A key-value store forked from RocksDB with advanced compression algorithms. It can be used standalone or as a storage engine for MySQL and MongoDB
