Name

Caché is a deprecated database engine which is substituted with InterSystems IRIS. It therefore is removed from the DB-Engines Ranking.

Description

Distributed and scalable native Graph DBMS

An open source immutable (append-only) database with cryptographic verification which makes it tamper-resistant and fully auditable.

A multi-model DBMS and application server

A Graph DBMS optimized for distributed clusters

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