DescriptionEnterprise-class SQL-on-Hadoop solution, powered by Apache TrafodionA distributed in-memory data processing engine, underpinned by a strongly-typed RAM store and a general distributed computation engineWide-column store based on Apache Hadoop and on concepts of BigTableA relational database management system that stores data in columnsIndustry standard data logging and graphing tool for time series data. RRD is an acronym for round-robin database. infoThe data is stored in a circular buffer, thus the system storage footprint remains constant over time.
