Editorial information provided by DB-Engines

Name

Description

Geode is a distributed data container, pooling memory, CPU, network resources, and optionally local disk across multiple processes

Performant, highly scalable DBMS for AI and IoT applications

Widely used open source RDBMS

A data warehouse powered by Apache HAWQ supporting descriptive analysis and advanced machine learning

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.

Primary database model

Key-value store

Key-value store
Vector DBMS

Relational DBMS

Key/Value like access via memcached API

Relational DBMS

Time Series DBMS

Secondary database models

Document store
