System Properties Comparison JanusGraph vs. NuoDB vs. Percona Server for MongoDB vs. RRDtool vs. SQLite

Editorial information provided by DB-Engines

Name

Description

A Graph DBMS optimized for distributed clusters

It was forked from the latest code base of Titan in January 2017

NuoDB is a webscale distributed database that supports SQL and ACID transactions

A drop-in replacement for MongoDB Community Edition with enterprise-grade features.

Industry standard data logging and graphing tool for time series data. RRD is an acronym for round-robin database.

The data is stored in a circular buffer, thus the system storage footprint remains constant over time.

Widely used embeddable, in-process RDBMS

Primary database model
