"CockroachDB is a distributed SQL database built on a transactional and strongly-consistent key-value store. It scales horizontally; survives disk, machine, rack, and even datacenter failures with minimal latency disruption and no manual intervention; supports strongly-consistent ACID transactions; and provides a familiar SQL API for structuring, manipulating, and querying data. "

"The Hyperledger Project is a collaborative effort created to advance blockchain technology by identifying and addressing important features for a cross-industry open standard for distributed ledgers that can transform the way business transactions are conducted globally."

"Bandicoot is an open source programming system with a new set-based programming language, persistency capabilities, and run-time environment. The language is similar to general purpose programming languages where you write functions/methods and access data through variables. Though, in Bandicoot, you always manipulate data in sets using a small set-based algebra (the relational algebra)." "Here are the main features:   - functions are automatically exposed via HTTP using CSV for data, e.g. /List, /Append  - supports persistency via global variables (with transactions and ACID)  - can run on multiple computers to scale up the read throughput  - built in operators from the relational algebra with a simple syntax, e.g. "+" (union), "-" (minus)  - small binary ~100KB"

"Titan is a scalable graph database optimized for storing and querying graphs containing hundreds of billions of vertices and edges distributed across a multi-machine cluster. Titan is a transactional database that can support thousands of concurrent users executing complex graph traversals."

"Datomic is a distributed database designed to enable scalable, flexible and intelligent applications, running on next-generation cloud architectures. It does this by: Bringing declarative data manipulation into the application, and the data with it Getting time, process and perception right Process (writes) require coordination Perception (reads) require none The past doesn't change Leveraging immutability, and a sound model of state Datomic has: ACID Transactions Joins A sound data model A logical query language - Datalog Thus, Datomic avoids the compromises and losses of many NoSQL solutions. In addition, it offers flexibility and power over the traditional model in supporting: Hierarchy Multi-valued attributes Minimal schema Reliable operation on unreliable, ephemeral cloud instances Time Datomic avoids manual caching and replication, complex configuration, sharding (automatic or manual), logging, locking, latching and disk management of traditional servers."

"Splunk Enterprise is the industry-leading platform for operational intelligence. Collect and index any machine data from virtually any source in real time. Search, monitor, analyze and visualize your data to gain new insights and intelligence. Index everything for deep visibility, forensics and troubleshooting. Work smarter as you and your team share searches and add knowledge specific to your organization. Create ad hoc reports to identify trends or prove compliance controls. Create interactive dashboards to monitor for security incidents, service levels and other key performance metrics. Analyze user transactions, customer behavior, machine behavior, security threats and fraudulent activity, all in real time."

"The Digital Service Standard is a set of 18 criteria to help government create and run good digital services. All public facing transactional services must meet the standard. It's used by departments and the Government Digital Service to check whether a service is good enough for public use."

"Leave the hassle of paper behind."
