Let me be a little nit-picky.
Trove when mapped to other RDBMS then MySQL may actually create multiple "DATABASES".
MySQL maps "CREATE DATABASE" to "CREATE SCHEMA" and Trove has inherited this inconsistency. A number of other RDBMS have both of these implemented and I would expect that they will call "CREATE DATABASE" instead.
It would be more accurate to say that Trove supports the creation of "DBMS" systems (though frankly some of the NO-SQL solutions don't fit that definition due to their lack of data integrity).
Additionally I would drop the "multi-user" part since some of the proposed implementations lack "users" as well.
Trove is a service that handles the maintenance, provisioning, etc… of DBMS systems.
Cheers,
-Brian
