DescriptionScalable in-memory time series database optimized for IoT and Big DataIndustry 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.An embeddable, high performance key-value store optimized for write-intensive workloads, which can be used as a drop-in replacement for RocksDBEnterprise Knowledge Graph platform and graph DBMS with high availability, high performance reasoning, and virtualization
