ArcadeDB is an open-source multi-model database supporting document model, graph model, and key-value model. Due to its non-relational nature, this is a NoSQL database. ArcadeDB runs on the Java platform and is written in Java, particularly only using Java's low-level API for performance reasons. Originally, this project started as a fork of OrientDB.[3] The development is driven by the community conducted on the github platform. ArcadeDB is listed in the DB engines ranking[4] and in Carnegie Mellon's Database of Databases.[5]

Multi-Model

ArcadeDB is a record-based[6] multi-model DBMS, providing the models:

  • Key-Value Model: A record is a pair of a unique key and a data value.
  • Document Model: A record is a sets of key-value pairs.
  • Graph Model: A record is either a vertex document or an edge document.

These models are nested in the sense that a vertex or edge is a special kind of augmented document, and a document consists of key-value pairs. As each record has a database-wide unique key, a so-called record identifier, ArcadeDB can be used as key-value store[7] In addition, vertex, edge or document properties can be (indexed) vectors and thus providing vector embedding database functionality (Vector Model).

Comparison of Database Concepts
Relational Database Key-Value Database Document Database Graph Database ArcadeDB
Table Bucket Collection Type Bucket and Type
Row Pair Document Vertex Vertex or Document
Column Pair Example Property (of Document, Vertex, or Edge)
Relation Edge Edge or Relationship

where:

  • Types are an optional, partial schema of a document, vertex or edge.
  • Buckets are containers for documents, vertices or edges of a certain type.

Furthermore, a time series model model[8] is available.

Features

Native Query Language

The native query language of ArcadeDB is a dialect of SQL, which is closely related to OrientDB's OSQL, and extends a subset SQL with functionality for documents, vertices, edges, buckets, types, and properties.

Indexing

ArcadeDB provides an LSM tree index in six variants:

  • unique
  • not-unique
  • unique hash
  • not-unique hash
  • full-text
  • geospatial

each of these indexes can be applies to scalar properties, maps (objects), and lists (arrays). Furthermore, a vector index is available for vector embeddings.

Programming Language Support (Drivers)

ArcadeDB natively includes support for Java. The community provides support for .NET, PHP, Python, Ruby, Rust, TypeScript, and Chicken Scheme. Generally, the HTTP API endpoint interface allows connectors, drivers, or clients in most programming languages.

Tooling

ArcadeDB provides a terminal client (console) for interacting with the database server and also a web interface (studio) for database management tasks, as well as queries and commands in all supported query languages and inspect query results in tabular text, raw JSON, or Graph rendering.

Usage

ArcadeDB has been tested in the context of scientific investigations of graph databases in [11][12][13][14][15] .
