Decision brief
Use ArcadeDB if you require a multi-model database system supporting a variety of query languages and vector embeddings for AI applications.
Good fit when
- When building systems that need to support SQL, Cypher, Gremlin, HTTP/JSON, MongoDB, or Redis interfaces simultaneously.
- For projects requiring direct support for vector embeddings integrated into its native operations without additional configurations.
Avoid when
- If your project strictly requires the specific functionalities and history of OrientDB that ArcadeDB may not fully replicate despite being a conceptual fork.
- When you need a database system that exclusively focuses on one model, as ArcadeDB's multi-model nature might introduce complexity without necessary benefits.
