Name

Yanza seems to be discontinued. Therefore it is excluded from the DB-Engines Ranking.

Description

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

A fast-speed and highly-scalable Graph DBMS

Fully managed big data interactive analytics platform

Extremely fast embedded database for small devices, IoT and Mobile

Time Series DBMS for IoT Applications

Primary database model

column oriented

Secondary database models

Document store

If a column is of type dynamic docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/kusto/query/scalar-data-types/dynamic then it's possible to add arbitrary JSON documents in this cell
Event Store

this is the general usage pattern at Microsoft. Billing, Logs, Telemetry events are stored in ADX and the state of an individual entity is defined by the arg_max(timestamps)
Spatial DBMS
Search engine

support for complex search expressions docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/kusto/query/parseoperator FTS, Geospatial docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/kusto/query/geo-point-to-geohash-function distributed search -> ADX acts as a distributed search engine
