Name

Description

Apache Ignite is a memory-centric distributed database, caching, and processing platform for transactional, analytical, and streaming workloads, delivering in-memory speeds at petabyte scale.

SADAS Engine is a columnar DBMS specifically designed for high performance in data warehouse environments

SpaceTime is a spatio-temporal DBMS with a focus on performance.

Key-Value Store with special method for indexing

optimized for high performance using a special indexing method

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

Primary database model

Key-value store
Relational DBMS

Spatial DBMS

Key-value store

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.
