DescriptiondBase was one of the first databases with a development environment on PC's. Its latest version dBase V is still sold as dBase classic, which needs a DOS Emulation. The up-to-date product is dBase plus.High performance knowledge graph and semantic reasoning engineRiak TS is a distributed NoSQL database optimized for time series data and based on Riak KVA distributed RDBMS for stream processing, wire-compatible with PostgreSQLIndustry 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.
