OrientDB

Database Management System

OrientDB is an open source NoSQL database management system written in Java that functions as a multi-model database, supporting graph, document, and object models with direct connections between records. It handles schema-less, schema-full, and schema-mixed modes, includes a security framework based on user and role management, and can be queried through both Gremlin and SQL variants for graph traversal.

FAQs

Is OrientDB only a graph database, or does it also offer SQL and transactions?

No. It is multi-model, supports SQL and ACID transactions, and can run distributed.

OrientDB is not limited to graph storage. Its maintainers describe it as supporting graph, document, reactive, full-text and geospatial models in one multi-model product. It supports SQL and ACID transactions, and it can run distributed in a multi-master arrangement.
