Name

Description

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

Widely used RDBMS in China, including analytical, transactional, distributed transactional, and cloud-native data warehousing.

A distributed in-memory data processing engine, underpinned by a strongly-typed RAM store and a general distributed computation engine

Apache Ignite is a memory-centric distributed database, caching, and processing platform for transactional, analytical, and streaming workloads, delivering in-memory speeds at petabyte scale.

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
