DescriptionConverged and high performance database for device data, events, time series, document and graphCUBRID is an open-source SQL-based relational database management system with object extensions for OLTPIndustry standard data logging and graphing tool for time series data. RRD is an acronym for round-robin database. infoThe data is stored in a circular buffer, thus the system storage footprint remains constant over time.Open source search engine for searching in data from different sources, e.g. relational databasesKey-Value Store with special method for indexing infooptimized for high performance using a special indexing method
