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.Hawkular metrics is the metric storage of the Red Hat sponsored Hawkular monitoring system. It is based on Cassandra.Application development environment with integrated database management systemOpen-source Time Series DBMS and monitoring systemTypeDB is a strongly-typed database with a rich and logical type system and TypeQL as its query language
