DescriptionNuoDB is a webscale distributed database that supports SQL and ACID transactionsA scalable, reliable search and analytics service in the cloud, built on RocksDBIndustry 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.DBMS for structured and unstructured content wrapped with an application serverMySQL wire-compliant distributed RDBMS that combines an in-memory row-oriented and a disc-based column-oriented storage with patented universal storage to handle transactional and analytical workloads in one single table type
