Description

Analytic DBMS for real-time computations and queries

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

Geode is a distributed data container, pooling memory, CPU, network resources, and optionally local disk across multiple processes

Primary database model

Relational DBMS

a hierachical model (tree) can be imposed

Object oriented DBMS
