Description

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

Google's NoSQL Big Data database service. It's the same database that powers many core Google services, including Search, Analytics, Maps, and Gmail.

Distributed, fault tolerant key-value store

TypeDB is a strongly-typed database with a rich and logical type system and TypeQL as its query language

High performance Graph DBMS supporting HTAP high availability cluster deployment

Primary database model

Relational DBMS

Key-value store
Wide column store

Key-value store

with links between data sets and object tags for the creation of secondary indexes

Graph DBMS
Relational DBMS

Often described as a 'hyper-relational' database, since it implements the 'Entity-Relationship Paradigm' to manage complex data structures and ontologies.
