Arachne is a graph database engine. It provides a graph interface on top of a variety of existing database technologies including: MongoDB, Elasticsearch, PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, Badger, and LevelDB.
Properties of an Arachne graph:
- Both vertices and edges in a graph can have any number of properties associated with them.
- There are many types of vertices and edges in a graph. Thus two vertices may have myriad types of edges connecting them reflecting myriad types of relationships.
- Edges in the graph are directed, meaning they have a source and destination.
Arachne also provides a query API for the traversing, analyzing and manipulating your graphs. Its syntax is inspired by Apache TinkerPop. Learn more here.
