Product Description

ArangoDB is a distributed, free, and open-source database with a flexible data model for documents, graphs, and key-values. Build high performance applications using a convenient SQL-like query language or JavaScript extensions.

How do you position yourself against your competitors?

ArangoDB doesn’t make you choose between graph, document, vector, key-value, full- text search, or geospatial paradigms. You get it ALL in a single, integrated platform.

Imagine stitching together the results from 6 separate queries written in 6 different query languages. This is the developer’s life in the world of competing solutions. AQL, ArangoDB’s unified query language, accesses ALL your data with one query. It’s simple to learn and feels more like coding. No more data integration nightmares.

As your data and user base grow, ArangoDB effortlessly scales horizontally to accommodate. While competing solutions can only scale vertically (or horizontally with heavy manual intervention), ArangoDB easily scales without any hands-on work by operators. Data is automatically and intelligently distributed across nodes in a lights-out fashion. No unnecessary downtime to manually distribute data. Higher performance from fewer network hops.

The result? Far lower TCO, increased operational efficiency, and more satisfied users and customers.

"Modern multi model database"

5/5

What do you like best about ArangoDB?

Multi model

AQL

Foxx Microservices framework

Arango search

Arango Oasis

Arangdb brings database technology to the next level. It simplifies the data model in an organisation by going away from the need of polyglot persistence. AQL is an amazing stuff which combines all the data model in one query and it’s ability to return back data in various structures. The recent addition of Arango search is a promising feature which can currently perform good amount of search patterns with out needing any additional persistence from the application. In my opinion Arango is a true multi model database which can perform a variety of user requirements. I really enjoyed working with it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ArangoDB?

I think the Arango web UI can be enhanced to have many features which includes taking hot backups Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simple yet powerful."

5/5

What do you like best about ArangoDB?

This database is very simple to visualize and implement your data models. Also the querying in AQL are pretty simple. Anyone with basic programming knowledge too can adapt to it quickly. The graph features provide a completely different picture. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ArangoDB?

Not much about the database, but the documentation for the drivers of arango is quite ambiguous & not well written. It could have been much simpler. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ArangoDB:

It is a very good choice for most business requirements. It can do everything that traditional SQL does, and much more than that with much more simplicity. You can design your queries very similar to sql. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ArangoDB solving and how is that benefiting you?

Basically, the main difference that it makes is how we relate one entity to other. This is very simple to do in arango using its graph features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I have used ArangoDB in production to store user related information."

3.5/5

What do you like best about ArangoDB?

Being a document based database, it is flexible to store any kind of schema. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ArangoDB?

I think, it is not very popular or not having broad community like mongodb. Sometimes you may not find the well support for issues that you are facing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ArangoDB:

If you are looking for a document based database, then you can consider Arangodb. But please review your usecase whether it fits in this db, and estimate scale as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ArangoDB solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am storing the user related information in collection. Benefits wise it is flexible for us, to not stick to particular schema.

And it is scalable as well. and it has UI client which makes it easy to query the database. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Arangodb"

4/5

What do you like best about ArangoDB?

The AQL, gives us the way to write any complex query which was difficult to write in other languages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ArangoDB?

Inbuilt methods, there should be some inbuilt methods to fetch the data quickly from database where users don't have to write the query. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent graph database"

5/5

What do you like best about ArangoDB?

1. It' easy to install both a single ArangoDB instance and ArangoDB cluster cross different OS, including CentOS, Ubuntu, MacOS and Windows. You could try and test graph database just through several steps.

2. The AQL is easy to learn and understand. The official document about AQL is very detailed. Everyone could learn it just by reading the AQL document.

3. The most important thing is that the AQL for graph traversal is very efficient. For a graph consisting of one hundred thousand nodes, it takes half an hour to query all rings which includes 6 to 12 nodes.

4. ArangoDB is schema free for a big graph. So it's easy to modify the graph structure without considering different problems.

5. ArangoDB support different cluster modes. That means however big your data is ArangoDB could dynamically scale out or in. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ArangoDB?

1. The graph display is not as clear as Neo4j. Although the GUI is not so important for a programer, it's a big problem for general customers because a beautiful and clear GUI could be more understandable for them.

2. ArangoDB could consider supporting Cypher. Cypher is easier to understand and many people have learnt it so maybe they don't like to learn so many different query languages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ArangoDB solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use ArangoDB for the vehicle insurance fraud scenario. In that scenario, a group of fraudsters work together to make fake car accidents and claim body injuries and car damages. If we just check or use traditional statistical method to inspect a single car accident, a series of car accidents look normal and independently. It is very hard to recognize the fraudsters by machine learning methods because the fraud sample is rare and it's hard to label different group of fraudsters. However, we modeled all the cases via a graph. Specifically, the claim cases are modeled as nodes and first drivers, third-party drivers, passengers etc are also modeled as nodes. All persons are connected by claim case node via relationship edges. Then we search lots of abnormal rings which is capable of revealing relationship between persons who are acting like perfect strangers.

ArangoDB is so excellent to store and query a graph. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"So Rich and Well Put Together"

5/5

What do you like best about ArangoDB?

Migrating a project to ArangoDB from a document DB was intimidating at first but with all the tools it comes packing made it much easier. The query language has a pretty shallow learning curve while at the same time equipping you with so much power.

The rich web interface was the most useful for me; it allowed me to play around with data and queries before committing anything to actual implementation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ArangoDB?

I've had no complaints so far, but I'll be sure to raise if I have any Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ArangoDB:

Coming from a document DB, ArangoDB is quite easy. Only some minor refactoring required to be up and running, then you can proceed to implement the other features Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ArangoDB solving and how is that benefiting you?

Enforcing integrity and consistency of stored data was becoming tedious with increasing complexity. ArangoDB took away all the checks and rules that had to be hardcoded in the application Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
