Name

Description

Distributed and scalable native Graph DBMS

A robust multi-value DBMS comprising development tools and middleware

A distributed, high available RDBMS compatible with Oracle and MySQL

Popular in-memory data platform used as a cache, message broker, and database that can be deployed on-premises, across clouds, and hybrid environments

Redis focuses on performance so most of its design decisions prioritize high performance and very low latencies.

A secure RDBMS, designed for easy portability from Oracle

Primary database model

Multiple data types and a rich set of operations, as well as configurable data expiration, eviction and persistence

Relational DBMS

Secondary database models
