DescriptionApache Ignite is a memory-centric distributed database, caching, and processing platform for transactional, analytical, and streaming workloads, delivering in-memory speeds at petabyte scale.An open source graph database built for real-time streaming and compatible with Neo4jIndustry 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.Analytics Platform for Big DataAn embeddable, non-blocking, type-safe key-value store for single or multiple disks and in-memory storage
