Editorial information provided by DB-Engines

Name

Drizzle has published its last release in September 2012. The open-source project is discontinued and Drizzle is excluded from the DB-Engines ranking.

Description

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.

MySQL fork with a pluggable micro-kernel and with an emphasis of performance over compatibility.

A Java embedded Key-Value Store which extends the Java Map interface

SpaceTime is a spatio-temporal DBMS with a focus on performance.

A key-value store forked from RocksDB with advanced compression algorithms. It can be used standalone or as a storage engine for MySQL and MongoDB
