DescriptionCUBRID is an open-source SQL-based relational database management system with object extensions for OLTPIndustrial-strength, open-source database solution built from the ground up for event sourcing.A Java embedded Key-Value Store which extends the Java Map interfaceFully managed big data interactive analytics platformKey-Value Store with special method for indexing infooptimized for high performance using a special indexing method
Primary database modelRelational DBMSEvent StoreKey-value storeRelational DBMS infocolumn orientedKey-value store
Secondary database modelsDocument store infoIf a column is of type dynamic docs.microsoft.com/­en-us/­azure/­kusto/­query/­scalar-data-types/­dynamic then it's possible to add arbitrary JSON documents in this cell
Event Store infothis is the general usage pattern at Microsoft. Billing, Logs, Telemetry events are stored in ADX and the state of an individual entity is defined by the arg_max(timestamps)
