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.Data logging and graphing tool for time series data infoThe storage layer (fixed size database) is called WhisperOpen-Source and Enterprise in-memory Key-Value StoreTypeDB provides developers with an expressive, customizable type system to manage their data using an award-winning query language, TypeQL, while building on a high-performance, distributed architecture.
