Description

High-performance, in-memory, MPP database specifically designed for in-memory analytics.

Serverless Time Series DBMS

Globally distributed, horizontally scalable, multi-model database service

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.
