Name

Description

CUBRID is an open-source SQL-based relational database management system with object extensions for OLTP

GeoMesa is a distributed spatio-temporal DBMS based on various systems as storage layer.

Distributed, fault tolerant key-value store

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.

Primary database model

Relational DBMS

Spatial DBMS

Key-value store

with links between data sets and object tags for the creation of secondary indexes

Time Series DBMS
