Name

Description

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

All data is stored inside objects which are linked by so-called link attributes. Objects consist of classes which can be extended and de-extended at runtime. Graphs can be defined with a struct.

DataStax Enterprise (DSE) is the always-on, scalable data platform built on Apache Cassandra and designed for hybrid Cloud. DSE integrates graph, search, analytics, administration, developer tooling, and monitoring into a unified platform.

Globally distributed, horizontally scalable, multi-model database service

High-performance distributed SQL database for global, internet-scale applications. Wire and feature compatible with PostgreSQL.
