Products that do what FalkorDB – Open-source graph database major update (C/Rust) does

Hey HN, I’m Roi, one of the co-creators of FalkorDB. We’re a growing team working on a graph database designed for production workloads and GraphRAG systems. The new release (v4.10.0) is out, and I wanted to share some of the updates and ask for feedback from folks who care about performance, memory efficiency in graph-heavy systems. FalkorDB is an open-source property graph database that supports OpenCypher (with our own extensions) and is used under the hood for retrieval-augmented generation setups where accuracy matters. The big problem we’re working on is scaling graph databases without…

    We have been using graph DBs more and more at work. I found them painful to work with locally and decided to try and build something better.

    Hi, Hacker News! We're excited to announce the release of GraphAr, an open-source file format for archiving and exchanging graph data. The landscape of graph processing systems is fragmented, with various types of systems, including graph databases, graph computation systems, and GNN systems. However, currently, there is no common file format for efficiently storing and exchanging graph data while maintaining its schema and graph semantics. GraphAr is designed to address this issue by providing a simple, lightweight format for storing and exchanging graph data. GraphAr is a flexible and…

    Preface: we love Hacker News. It's been one of the constant good things in all of our lives, and is by far our favorite place to talk with people about what we're doing. I figured it was worth doing a special post for something we've been cooking up, rather than just linking to what everyone else gets. So here it is. We just turned on a product we're calling "Elastic Deployments". These are MongoDB clusters that scale vertically with no intervention. As a database grows, it has access to more RAM, IOPs and CPU. More here:…

    We were tired of writing raw Cypher — escaping quotes, zero autocomplete, refactoring nightmares — so we built GraphORM: a type-safe Python ORM for RedisGraph&#x2F;FalkorDB using pure Python objects. What it does Instead of fragile Cypher: query = """ MATCH (a:User {user_id: 1})-[r1:FRIEND]->(b:User)-[r2:FRIEND]->(c:User) WHERE c.user_id <> 1 AND b.active = true WITH b, count(r2) as friend_count WHERE friend_count > 5 RETURN c, friend_count ORDER BY friend_count DESC LIMIT 10 """ You write type-safe Python: stmt = select().match( (UserA, FRIEND.alias("r1"), UserB), (UserB,…

    Hi HN, I am one of the cofounders of http:&#x2F;&#x2F;turingdb.ai. We built TuringDB while working on large biological knowledge graphs and graph-based digital twins with pharma & hospitals, where existing graph databases were unusable for deep graph traversals with hundreds or thousands of hops on (crappy) machines you can find in a hospital. https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;turing-db&#x2F;turingdb TuringDB is a new in-memory, column-oriented graph database optimised for read-heavy analytical workloads: - Milliseconds (1) for multi-hop queries on graphs with 10M+ nodes&#x2F;edges -…

    I am just getting ready to release TeamPostgreSQL 1.05. You can check it out here: http://www.teampostgresql.com It is a web-based admin interface for PostgreSQL, with a lot of work put into making it a user-friendly and productive way to work with the database. Hopefully this makes it ideal for when different people need to access the database, including developers, testers, support staff, managers etc. This will be the first release after several months of beta testing and user feedback. Some feature highlights: * Pretty neat web interface (GWT powered AJAX GUI) * Comprehensive database…
