Description

Database as a Service offering based on Apache CouchDB

Performant, highly scalable DBMS for AI and IoT applications

MySQL application compatible open source RDBMS, enhanced with high availability, security, interoperability and performance capabilities. MariaDB ColumnStore provides a column-oriented storage engine and MariaDB Xpand supports distributed SQL.

TypeDB is a strongly-typed database with a rich and logical type system and TypeQL as its query language

TimeSeries DBMS specialized on timestamped geo data based on LevelDB or HBase

Primary database model

Document store

Key-value store
Vector DBMS

Relational DBMS

Graph DBMS
Relational DBMS

Often described as a 'hyper-relational' database, since it implements the 'Entity-Relationship Paradigm' to manage complex data structures and ontologies.

Time Series DBMS
