Name

Description

Multi-storage database for search, including full-text search.

A DBMS designed for efficient storage of vector data and vector similarity searches

Popular in-memory data platform used as a cache, message broker, and database that can be deployed on-premises, across clouds, and hybrid environments

Redis focuses on performance so most of its design decisions prioritize high performance and very low latencies.

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

Primary database model

Search engine

Vector DBMS

Key-value store

Multiple data types and a rich set of operations, as well as configurable data expiration, eviction and persistence

Time Series DBMS

Secondary database models

Time Series DBMS

using the Manticore Columnar Library

Document store

with RedisJSON
Graph DBMS

with RedisGraph
Spatial DBMS
Search engine

with RediSearch
