Name

Description

Enterprise-class SQL-on-Hadoop solution, powered by Apache Trafodion

Large scale data warehouse service with append-only tables

Widely used in-process key-value store

A cloud-native analytic database platform with new technologoy for elastic MPP

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.

Primary database model

Relational DBMS

Key-value store

supports sorted and unsorted key sets
Native XML DBMS

in the Oracle Berkeley DB XML version
