  • BQN

    An APL-like programming language. Self-hosted!

  • APL's ASCII based relation, J is opensource(GPL, I think). [BQN](https://mlochbaum.github.io/BQN/) is a newer rationalized entry which is completely FOSS.

    K is another array language which has a proprietary implementation. Tcl is a relatively popular proprietary language.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
