Name

Description

Embeddable document-store database library with JSON representation of queries (in MongoDB style)

Performant, highly scalable DBMS for AI and IoT applications

Time Series DBMS based on Cassandra

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.

An embeddable, non-blocking, type-safe key-value store for single or multiple disks and in-memory storage

Primary database model

Document store

Key-value store
Vector DBMS

Time Series DBMS

Key-value store
