Name

Description

A MySQL compatible DBMS with Git-like versioning of data and schema

Widely used RDBMS in China, including analytical, transactional, distributed transactional, and cloud-native data warehousing.

A fast-speed and highly-scalable Graph DBMS

Widely used open source RDBMS

Industry standard data logging and graphing tool for time series data. RRD is an acronym for round-robin database.

The data is stored in a circular buffer, thus the system storage footprint remains constant over time.
