Name

Description

Scalable GPU-accelerated RDBMS for very fast analytic and streaming workloads, leveraging PostgreSQL

A high-performance, column-oriented SQL DBMS for online analytical processing (OLAP) that uses all available system resources to their full potential to process each analytical query as fast as possible. It is available as both an open-source software and a cloud offering.

A Graph DBMS optimized for distributed clusters

It was forked from the latest code base of Titan in January 2017

Distributed, fault tolerant key-value store

A lightweight, in-memory graph engine that serves as a reference implementation of the TinkerPop3 API
