Name

Description

GeoMesa is a distributed spatio-temporal DBMS based on various systems as storage layer.

mSQL (Mini SQL) is a simple and lightweight RDBMS

A key-value store forked from RocksDB with advanced compression algorithms. It can be used standalone or as a storage engine for MySQL and MongoDB

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

Primary database model

Spatial DBMS

Relational DBMS

Key-value store

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.
