![]() This has since been solved, thanks to the ability of additional Primary servers to be marked as ‘followers’ for shards on other primary servers. This was due to laggy eventually consistent replicas. When I first wrote about ArangoDB in State of NoSQL 2016, I assessed it to not yet be quite ACID compliant. Please add a comment to this article if you’ve found the combination useful – I’d love to hear war stories! After talking with ArangoDB, they believe the combination of these features will be very useful to IoT use cases in particular. By applying this attribute you minimise the network hops for most queries.Ĭombined with SatelliteCollections (Enterprise edition only), mentioned above, you can tune your data storage to ensure fast graph queries even when the graph is sharded – handling tricky cases like me with my international, jet setting, twitter connections. Consider a social graph – most people have connections in the same country (unless you’re me and write about IT!) – so sharding a graph based on country of a user works well. This manages the sharding of nodes on a graph based on a known attribute. If they can crack it with Pregel in this release, they’ll be way ahead of several of their competitors.įor example, the recently added SmartGraphs feature (Enterprise edition only). I’m glad to see ArangoDB spending a lot of Engineering time on this key problem. Of course for graph algorithms that follow paths between nodes this introduces lag as you traverse the graph. In order to use commodity servers rather than expensive high powered servers you need to spread the data out. One of the big problems in a distributed graph store is efficient processing of graph algorithms across multiple servers in a cluster. ![]() This may not sound like much but I can tell ya from running distributed processing algorithms over NoSQL database, that this will help tune large document processing algorithms to a great extent. Satellite Collections (Enterprise Edition only) is a great new feature where you can instruct the engine to use replicas for processing, removing the need for a network hop to find key collection data on another node. Key for many serious Enterprise customers like Banks and Governments. The Enterprise version also benefits from LDAP security support, and encryption at rest. Certain graph algorithms demand running on a single machine with all the data, so being able to choose should keep graph aficionados happy! Interestingly, you can choose single node or cluster execution. ![]() Think of this like an efficient version of Map/Reduce for graph algorithms processed across data spread throughout the cluster. Support for the Pregel graph processing model will be a boon for developers. This should greatly improve performance under high write and read loads. It’s a positive change though, allowing document-level locking, and preventing writes blocking reads, and vice versa. Plus, as MongoDB customer found out when introducing WiredTiger as a storage engine, you’ll always want to test and retest a new storage layer to look for unanticipated regression and performance issues. This is a huge change that will require load testing in your applications, as consistency and locking work differently than the previous mmfiles method. The biggest change is the use of Facebook’s RocksDB key-value store as a storage engine (I’ll review RocksDB separately in a future article).
