Description

Fauna provides a web-native interface, with support for GraphQL and custom business logic that integrates seamlessly with the rest of the serverless ecosystem. The underlying globally distributed storage and compute platform is fast, consistent, and reliable, with a modern security infrastructure.

Apache Ignite is a memory-centric distributed database, caching, and processing platform for transactional, analytical, and streaming workloads, delivering in-memory speeds at petabyte scale.

SADAS Engine is a columnar DBMS specifically designed for high performance in data warehouse environments

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