ONgDB / Owen-Gee-Dee-Bee / which stands for Open Native Graph Database, is an open source, high performance, native graph store with everything you would expect from an enterprise-ready database, including high availability clustering, ACID transactions, and an intuitive, pattern-centric graph query language. Developers use graph theory-based structures that we call nodes and relationships instead of rows and columns. For many use cases, ONgDB will provide orders of magnitude performance benefits compared to non-native graph, relational and NoSQL databases.

We encourage experimentation with ONgDB. You can build plugins to ONgDB, develop library or drivers atop the product, or make contributions directly to the product core. You’ll need to sign the Graph Foundation Contributor License Agreement to become a contributor.

ONgDB is built using Apache Maven version 3.6. Maven requires more memory than the standard configuration which can be achieved with export MAVEN_OPTS="-Xmx512m"
.
Before you start running the unit and integration tests in the ONgDB Maven project on a Linux-like system, you should ensure the limit on open files is set to a reasonable value.
You can test it with ulimit -n
.
We recommend you have a limit of at least 40K.
-
Run
mvn clean install -DfullBuild -Drevapi.skip=true -DcreateChecksum=true
to build end-to-end with all tests. -
In case you want to skip tests add the
-DskipTests
flag to the previous command. -
You may need to increase the memory available to Maven:
export MAVEN_OPTS="-Xmx512m"
.
After building, cd into packaging/standalone/target
and extract the edition you want, then
bin/ongdb start
in the extracted folder to start ONgDB on localhost:7474
.
On Windows you want to run
bin\ongdb start
instead.
