Description | data warehouse software for querying and managing large distributed datasets, built on Hadoop | A Graph DBMS optimized for distributed clusters It was forked from the latest code base of Titan in January 2017 | One of the most popular document stores available both as a fully managed cloud service and for deployment on self-managed infrastructure | Popular in-memory data platform used as a cache, message broker, and database that can be deployed on-premises, across clouds, and hybrid environments Redis focuses on performance so most of its design decisions prioritize high performance and very low latencies. | Distributed, fault tolerant key-value store | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Primary database model | Relational DBMS | Graph DBMS | Document store | Key-value store Multiple data types and a rich set of operations, as well as configurable data expiration, eviction and persistence | Key-value store with links between data sets and object tags for the creation of secondary indexes | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Secondary database models | Spatial DBMS Search engine integrated Lucene index, currently in MongoDB Atlas only. Time Series DBMS Time Series Collections introduced in Release 5.0 Vector DBMS currently available in the MongoDB Atlas cloud service only | Document store with RedisJSON Graph DBMS with RedisGraph Spatial DBMS Search engine with RediSearch Time Series DBMS with RedisTimeSeries Vector DBMS | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
