NameDatomic  Xexclude from comparisonInterSystems Caché  Xexclude from comparisonjBASE  Xexclude from comparisonOrigoDB  Xexclude from comparisonRRDtool  Xexclude from comparison
Caché is a deprecated database engine which is substituted with InterSystems IRIS. It therefore is removed from the DB-Engines Ranking.
DescriptionDatomic builds on immutable values, supports point-in-time queries and uses 3rd party systems for durabilityA multi-model DBMS and application serverA robust multi-value DBMS comprising development tools and middlewareA fully ACID in-memory object graph databaseIndustry standard data logging and graphing tool for time series data. RRD is an acronym for round-robin database. infoThe data is stored in a circular buffer, thus the system storage footprint remains constant over time.
