System Properties Comparison Cloudflare Workers KV vs. ITTIA vs. Redis vs. WakandaDB vs. Yaacomo

Editorial information provided by DB-Engines

Name

Yaacomo seems to be discontinued and is removed from the DB-Engines ranking

Description

A global, low-latency, key-value store for applications on Cloudflare with exceptionally high read volumes and low-latency.

Edge Time Series DBMS with Real-Time Stream Processing

Popular in-memory data platform used as a cache, message broker, and database that can be deployed on-premises, across clouds, and hybrid environments

Redis focuses on performance so most of its design decisions prioritize high performance and very low latencies.

WakandaDB is embedded in a server that provides a REST API and a server-side javascript engine to access data

OpenCL based in-memory RDBMS, designed for efficiently utilizing the hardware via parallel computing

Primary database model

Key-value store

Time Series DBMS
