ArangoDB
|
|
|
|
ArangoDB is a multi-purpose, open-source database with flexible data models for
|
|
documents, graphs, and key-values. Build high performance applications using a
|
|
convenient SQL-like query language or JavaScript/Ruby extensions. Use ACID
|
|
transaction if you require them. Scale horizontally and vertically with a few
|
|
mouse clicks.
|
|
|
|
Key features include:
|
|
|
|
* Schema-free schemata let you combine the space efficiency of MySQL with the
|
|
performance power of NoSQL
|
|
* Use ArangoDB as an application server and fuse your application and database
|
|
together for maximal throughput
|
|
* JavaScript for all: no language zoo, you can use one language from your
|
|
browser to your back-end
|
|
* ArangoDB is multi-threaded - exploit the power of all your cores
|
|
* Flexible data modelling: model your data as combination of key-value pairs,
|
|
documents or graphs - perfect for social relations
|
|
* Free index choice: use the correct index for your problem, be it a skip list
|
|
or a fulltext search
|
|
* Configurable durability: let the application decide if it needs more
|
|
durability or more performance
|
|
* No-nonsense storage: ArangoDB uses all of the power of modern storage
|
|
hardware, like SSD and large caches
|
|
* Powerful query language (AQL) to retrieve data
|
|
* Transactions: run queries on multiple documents or collections with optional
|
|
transactional consistency and isolation
|
|
* Replication and Sharding: set up the database in a master-slave configuration
|
|
or spread bigger datasets across multiple servers
|
|
* It is open source (Apache Licence 2.0)
|
|
|

|
* read more on the design_goals_of_ArangoDB
|
|

|
|
introduction of what the ArangoDB project is about.
|
