Name

Description

Converged and high performance database for device data, events, time series, document and graph

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.

FileMaker is a cross-platform RDBMS that includes a GUI frontend.

Time Series DBMS based on Cassandra

TypeDB is a strongly-typed database with a rich and logical type system and TypeQL as its query language
