Decision brief
ParadeDB is an extension to PostgreSQL designed for integrating full-text search, vector retrieval, and aggregation functionalities.
Good fit when
- Use ParadeDB when you need a unified database solution that supports both transactional operations and analytical processing within the same environment (HTAP).
- If your application requires real-time analytics alongside traditional SQL operations, ParadeDB can be an ideal choice due to its support for full-text search and vector retrieval.
Avoid when
- Avoid using ParadeDB if your project strictly adheres to permissive licensing, as it is under AGPL-3.0 which imposes copyleft obligations.
- Do not opt for ParadeDB when you specifically require a standalone full-text search solution like Elasticsearch that offers more specialized features out-of-the-box.
- Pricing:
- freemium - ParadeDB Community is available under AGPL-3.0 for free, but commercial use may require contacting sales for enterprise licensing options.
- Requirements:
- Requires Docker
