Name

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.

Geode is a distributed data container, pooling memory, CPU, network resources, and optionally local disk across multiple processes

A Graph DBMS optimized for distributed clusters

It was forked from the latest code base of Titan in January 2017

Widely used embeddable, in-process RDBMS
