Descriptiondata warehouse software for querying and managing large distributed datasets, built on HadoopHigh performance knowledge graph and semantic reasoning engineIndustry 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.Spark SQL is a component on top of 'Spark Core' for structured data processingA general purpose database with bitemporal SQL and Datalog and graph queries
