Name

Description

An in-memory DBMS combining transactional and analytical processing to handle the aggregation of ever-changing data.

A distributed document store with integrated cache, a powerful search engine, in-built operational and analytical capabilities, and an embedded mobile database

An open source immutable (append-only) database with cryptographic verification which makes it tamper-resistant and fully auditable.

Microsoft Access combines a backend RDBMS (JET / ACE Engine) with a GUI frontend for data manipulation and queries.

The Access frontend is often used for accessing other datasources (DBMS, Excel, etc.)
