If it grew in my dry garden soil I, too, would call it Purslane. But since there are “Approximately forty varieties currently cultivated”, I suppose one could be an aquatic plant. A common plant in parts of India, purslane is known as Sanhti, Punarva, or Kulfa.

Might be Portulaca oleracea, Purslane. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portulaca_oleracea
