NO, Realm is not a relational database.
It allows you to declare relationships between objects the same as you would do in any object graph in your language of choice.
JP's talk on the core describes it in more detail and is highly recommended.
It stores objects in an optimal memory-mapped format, using column-store techniques for fast searching. Accessors in the different language SDKs map directly to functions using that memory-mapped storage.
In contrast, anything using a relational database like SQLite has multiple layers of copying buffers.
Note: I was on the Realm Xamarin team (2015-2017), left a great bunch of people after we shipped v1.0 to focus on my own startup.

Yes, realm is a relational database . Much faster when complex queries are fired. Supports less number of programming languages.
