Name

ToroDB seems to be discontinued. Therefore it is excluded from the DB-Engines Ranking.

Description

Scalable in-memory time series database optimized for IoT and Big Data

Widely used open source RDBMS

A MongoDB-compatible JSON document store, built on top of PostgreSQL

Fast distributed SQL query engine for big data analytics. Forked from Presto and originally named PrestoSQL

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

Primary database model

Time Series DBMS

Relational DBMS

Key/Value like access via memcached API

Document store
