ArangoDB

ArangoDB is a scalable graph database system to drive value from connected data, faster. Native graphs, an integrated search engine, and JSON support, via a single query language. ArangoDB runs on-prem, in the cloud – anywhere.

ArangoDB Cloud Service

The ArangoGraph Insights Platform is the simplest way to run ArangoDB. You can create deployments on all major cloud providers in many regions with ease.

Getting Started

• ArangoDB University
• Free Udemy Course
• Training Center
• Documentation

For the impatient:

• Test ArangoDB in the cloud with ArangoGraph for free.

• Alternatively, download and install ArangoDB. Start the server arangod if the installer did not do it for you.

  Or start ArangoDB in a Docker container:

  docker run -e ARANGO_ROOT_PASSWORD=test123 -p 8529:8529 -d arangodb
  

  Then point your browser to http://127.0.0.1:8529/.

Key Features of ArangoDB

Native Graph - Store both data and relationships, for faster queries even with multiple levels of joins and deeper insights that simply aren't possible with traditional relational and document database systems.

Document Store - Every node in your graph is a JSON document: flexible, extensible, and easily imported from your existing document database.

ArangoSearch - Natively integrated cross-platform indexing, text-search and ranking engine for information retrieval, optimized for speed and memory.

ArangoDB is available in a free and fully featured Community Edition as well as an Enterprise Edition for commercial use and without a dataset size limit.

Core Features

• Horizontal scalability: Seamlessly shard your data across multiple machines.
• High availability and resilience: Replicate data to multiple cluster nodes, with automatic failover.
• Flexible data modeling: Model your data as combination of key-value pairs, documents, and graphs as you see fit for your application.
• Work schema-free or use schema validation for data consistency. Store any type of data - date/time, geo-spatial, text, nested.
• Powerful query language (AQL) to retrieve and modify data - from simple CRUD operations, over complex filters and aggregations, all the way to joins, graphs, and ranked full-text search.
• Transactions: Run queries on multiple documents or collections with optional transactional consistency and isolation.
• Data-centric microservices: Unify your data storage logic, reduce network overhead, and secure sensitive data with the ArangoDB Foxx JavaScript framework.
• Fast access to your data: Fine-tune your queries with a variety of index types for optimal performance. ArangoDB is written in C++ and can handle even very large datasets efficiently.
• Easy to use web interface and command-line tools for interaction with the server.

Scalability Features

Focus on solving enterprise-scale problems for mission critical workloads using secure graph data. ArangoDB offers special features for performance, compliance, and security, as well as advanced query capabilities.

• Smartly shard and replicate graphs and datasets with features like EnterpriseGraphs, SmartGraphs, and SmartJoins for lightning fast query execution.
• Combine the performance of a single server with the resilience of a cluster setup using OneShard deployments.
• Increase fault tolerance with Datacenter-to-Datacenter Replication and and create incremental Hot Backups without downtime.
• Enable highly secure work with Encryption 360, enhanced Data Masking, and detailed Auditing.
• Perform parallel graph traversals.
• Use ArangoSearch search highlighting and nested search for advanced information retrieval.
