Caché is a deprecated database engine which is substituted with InterSystems IRIS. It therefore is removed from the DB-Engines Ranking.
DescriptionAll 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.Datomic builds on immutable values, supports point-in-time queries and uses 3rd party systems for durabilityGeode is a distributed data container, pooling memory, CPU, network resources, and optionally local disk across multiple processesA multi-model DBMS and application serverA robust multi-value DBMS comprising development tools and middleware
