Apache Software Foundation

The Apache Software Foundation (Wikipedia) is a decentralized open source community of developers. The software they produce is distributed under the terms of the Apache License, a permissive open-source license for free and open-source software (FOSS). The Apache projects are characterized by a collaborative, consensus-based development process and an open and pragmatic software license, which is to say that it allows developers, who receive the software freely, to redistribute it under non-free terms. Each project is managed by a self-selected team of technical experts who are active contributors to the project.

Apache AGE

Apache AGE is a PostgreSQL extension that provides graph database functionality. AGE is an acronym for A Graph Extension, and is inspired by Bitnine’s fork of PostgreSQL 10, AgensGraph, which is a multimodal database. The goal of the project is to create single storage that can handle both relational and graph model data so that users can use standard ANSI SQL along with openCypher, the Graph query language. The data elements Apache AGE stores are nodes, edges connecting them, and attributes of nodes and edges.

Apache Cassandra

Apache Cassandra is a NoSQL, row-oriented, highly scalable and highly available database. Starting with version 5.0, the database ships with vector search capabilities.

Apache Doris

Apache Doris is a modern data warehouse for real-time analytics. It delivers lightning-fast analytics on real-time data at scale.

Usually Apache Doris is categorized into OLAP, and it has showed excellent performance in ClickBench — a Benchmark For Analytical DBMS. Since it has a super-fast vectorized execution engine, it could also be used as a fast vectordb.

Apache Kafka

Apache Kafka is a distributed messaging system that is used to publish and subscribe to streams of records.

Apache Spark

Apache Spark is a unified analytics engine for large-scale data processing. It provides high-level APIs in Scala, Java, Python, and R, and an optimized engine that supports general computation graphs for data analysis. It also supports a rich set of higher-level tools including Spark SQL for SQL and DataFrames, pandas API on Spark for pandas workloads, MLlib for machine learning, GraphX for graph processing, and Structured Streaming for stream processing.
