Name

Description

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

Scalable Time Series DBMS based on HBase

Embeddable persistent key-value store optimized for fast storage (flash and RAM)

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.

Enterprise Knowledge Graph platform and graph DBMS with high availability, high performance reasoning, and virtualization
