  • ArangoDB

    🥑 ArangoDB is a native multi-model database with flexible data models for documents, graphs, and key-values. Build high performance applications using a convenient SQL-like query language or JavaScript extensions.

  • As an AWS person, I became really interested in how I may take advantage of a an AppSync GraphQL API backed by a graph database. There are many great options to choose from, including things like Neo4j and ArangoDB which I hope to also try out sometime soon, but for this build I chose to use Amazon Neptune.
