ArangoDB delivers the power of graph together with high scalability and performance, true enterprise capabilities, multimodel support and the credibility and velocity of open source. “Leveraging data in all its diversity and at – often massive – scale has become an imperative for all enterprises.

ArangoDB is natively designed to scale to enterprises’ needs, relying on its unique approach of sharded data across large clusters.

Since its founding, ArangoDB has natively supported graph in combination with additional data formats, including JSON documents, key-value, and full-text search. Our Series B funding will allow us to accelerate our mission to make it even easier to generate real value from data, as well as enter new markets.” Graph and beyond enable everyone to combine graphs, structured, unstructured, and more kinds of data in one solution, at enterprise-scale with advanced graph analytics. “ArangoDB’s goal from day one is to make it extremely easy to handle data of any kind.
