DescriptionA high performance, column-oriented RDBMS, specifically developed to harness the massive parallelism of modern CPU and GPU hardwareIndustry 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.Scalable Graph Database platform making enterprise data available by exploiting inferred entities and relationshipsFast distributed SQL query engine for big data analytics. Forked from Presto and originally named PrestoSQLA .NET Object Database that can be embedded/distributed and extended to a graph data model (VelocityGraph)
