DescriptionGeoMesa is a distributed spatio-temporal DBMS based on various systems as storage layer.A Graph DBMS optimized for distributed clusters infoIt was forked from the latest code base of Titan in January 2017Time Series DBMS based on CassandraDistributed, high-performance timeseries databaseIndustry 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.
