Name

JSqlDB seems to be discontinued. Therefore it is excluded from the DB-Engines ranking.

Description

Hawkular metrics is the metric storage of the Red Hat sponsored Hawkular monitoring system. It is based on Cassandra.

JavaScript Query Language Database, stores JavaScript objects and primitives

An embeddable, non-blocking, type-safe key-value store for single or multiple disks and in-memory storage

In-memory computing platform with a flexible data schema for efficiently building high-performance applications

Distributed In-Memory NewSQL RDBMS

Used for OLTP applications with a high frequency of relatively simple transactions, that can hold all their data in memory
