DescriptionGeode is a distributed data container, pooling memory, CPU, network resources, and optionally local disk across multiple processesSpatial extension of H2Fully vectorized database across both GPUs and CPUsIndustry 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.SpaceTime is a spatio-temporal DBMS with a focus on performance.
