Editorial information provided by DB-Engines

Name

Description

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

mSQL (Mini SQL) is a simple and lightweight RDBMS

Widely used RDBMS

A fully ACID in-memory object graph database

Industry standard data logging and graphing tool for time series data. RRD is an acronym for round-robin database.

The data is stored in a circular buffer, thus the system storage footprint remains constant over time.
