IRONdb seems to be discontinued. Therefore it is excluded 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.High performant column-oriented DBMS for analytic workloads using MySQL or PostgreSQL as a frontendA distributed Time Series DBMS with a focus on scalability, fault tolerance and operational simplicityDistributed Time Series DBMS based on Cassandra or H2A distributed, linear scalable, high perfomant Graph DBMS
