Name

IRONdb seems to be discontinued. Therefore it 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.

A distributed Time Series DBMS with a focus on scalability, fault tolerance and operational simplicity

Scalable Graph Database platform making enterprise data available by exploiting inferred entities and relationships

A lightweight, in-memory graph engine that serves as a reference implementation of the TinkerPop3 API
