Micro Graph Database for Python Applications

In plain words

Micro Graph Database for Python Applications is a graph database designed for Python developers. Launched in 2022, it provides lightweight graph data storage and querying capabilities built specifically for Python projects. The tool is intended for developers who need graph database functionality without heavy overhead, making it suitable for applications requiring relationship-based data management at a smaller scale than enterprise solutions.

No server. No config. Runs in notebooks, apps, even your browser. Combine traversal with similarity — filter by relationships and meaning. Traverse graphs with Torque — a fluent, chainable Python API. No Cypher, no query strings. pip install cogdb — no server, no Docker, no config, no dependencies. Jupyter notebooks, Python apps, Google Colab, even the browser viafrom cogdb.io

  Cozo – new Graph DB with Datalog, embedded like SQLite2022 · github.com · ▲425

  Hi HN, I have been making this Cozo database since half a year ago, and now it is ready for public release. My initial motivation is that I want a graph database. Lightweight and easy to use, like SQLite. Powerful and performant, like Postgres. I found none of the existing solutions good enough. Deciding to roll my own, I need to choose a query language. I am familiar with Cypher but consider it not much of an improvement over CTE in SQL (Cypher is sometimes notationally more convenient, but not more expressive). I like Gremlin but would prefer something more declarative. Experimentations…

  CozoDB, Hybrid Relational-Graph-Vector Database2023 · docs.cozodb.org · ▲137

  Hi HN! We're thrilled to share CozoDB v0.6, a monumental update to our FOSS database, which already unifies relational and graph features. With the addition of vector search, CozoDB becomes an even better companion for LLMs like ChatGPT. This release introduces vector search using HNSW indices within Datalog, enabling seamless integration with powerful features such as ad-hoc joins, recursive Datalog, and classical whole-graph algorithms. This update significantly broadens CozoDB's capabilities. Check out the linked release note for an in-depth look at the new features, comparisons to other…

  HelixDB – Open-source vector-graph database for AI applications (Rust)2025 · github.com · ▲237

  Hey HN, we want to share HelixDB (https://github.com/HelixDB/helix-db/), a project a college friend and I are working on. It’s a new database that natively intertwines graph and vector types, without sacrificing performance. It’s written in Rust and our initial focus is on supporting RAG. Here’s a video runthrough: https://screen.studio/share/szgQu3yq. Why a hybrid? Vector databases are useful for similarity queries, while graph databases are useful for relationship queries. Each stores data in a way that’s best for its main type of query (e.g.…

  OctaneDB – Fast, Open-Source Vector Database for Python2025 · github.com · ▲33

  OctaneDB is an open-source vector database for Python that focuses on ultra-fast similarity search for high-dimensional data—perfect for AI/ML, semantic search, and large-scale document or embedding retrieval. What does it do? Store, index, and search millions of embeddings (text, images, etc.) with sub-millisecond query time. Supports in-memory and efficient HDF5 persistent storage. Integrates seamlessly with sentence-transformers for automatic text embedding. Key Features: 10x faster than Pinecone or ChromaDB for vector search and batch insertions. Advanced indexing: HNSW (approximate…

  Talanoa▲340

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
