DescriptiondBase was one of the first databases with a development environment on PC's. Its latest version dBase V is still sold as dBase classic, which needs a DOS Emulation. The up-to-date product is dBase plus.High performance in-memory data grid platform, powering three products: Smart Cache, Smart ODS (Operational Data Store), Smart Augmented TransactionsPerformant, highly scalable DBMS for AI and IoT applicationsTypeDB is a strongly-typed database with a rich and logical type system and TypeQL as its query languageA .NET Object Database that can be embedded/distributed and extended to a graph data model (VelocityGraph)
