DescriptionAn embedded key-value store for Go.Natively in-memory DBMS with options for persistency, high-availability and clusteringSpatial and temporal data processing engine for extreme data scaleQpenQM is a high-performance, self-tuning, multi-value DBMSIndustry 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.
