Name

Description

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.

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.

Enterprise-class SQL-on-Hadoop solution, powered by Apache Trafodion

Spatial extension of H2

NuoDB is a webscale distributed database that supports SQL and ACID transactions
