# ArangoDB
|
|
[](http://travis-ci.org/triAGENS/ArangoDB)
|
|
|
|
ArangoDB is a universal open-source database with flexible data model for documents, graphs, and key-values. Build high performance application using a convenient sql-like query language or JavaScript/Ruby extensions.
|
|
|
|
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 modeling**: 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 n-gram 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
|
|
* It is **open source** (Apache Licence 2.0)
|
|
