DescriptionIn-memory caching systemDistributed Database based on LuceneNative high-speed multi-model DBMS for relational and key-value store data simultaneously accessible through SQL and NoSQL APIs.A drop-in replacement for MongoDB Community Edition with enterprise-grade features.Industry 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.
