What are the upsides of switching from ArangoDB to Memgraph?

I've used ArangoDB for a long time. I thinking about switching to Memgraph. What are the upsides of Memgraph? Is there a C++ driver that I can use?

Solution

  • Regarding features, Memgraph is primarily a graph database, not a multi-modal database. This means that it has been optimized for different features,

    If your use case is optimal for a graph database, then we will perform better, and you will have great built-in algorithms, triggers, tooling, and so on. All cool stuff related to the graphs. You can see all of the features in the reference guide

    One of Memgraph's distinctive features is that it is in-memory graph database.

    This means that it is very fast. Memgraph has a C/C++ mgclient driver for the database. More info regarding drivers and API is available in the official documentation.
