Pronto Move Shard

00GeneralTags: , , ,

In July Adobe announced that they plan the End-of-Life for flash at around 2020.
As HTML5 progressed and due to a long history of critical security vulnerabilities this is – technologically speaking – certainly the right decision. However I tended to also become a bit sad.

Flash was the first technology that brought interactivity to the web. We tend to forget how static the web was in the early 2000s. Flash brought life to the web and there were plenty of stupid trash games and animations which I really enjoyed at the time. As a homage to the age of trashy flash games I created a game which resembles the games of this era: Read more

ArangoDB 3.2 GA
RocksDB, Pregel, Fault-Tolerant Foxx & Satellite Collections

00General, ReleasesTags: , , , ,

We are pleased to announce the release of ArangoDB 3.2. Get it here. After an unusually long hackathon, we eliminated two large roadblocks, added a long overdue feature and integrated an interesting new one into this release. Furthermore, we’re proud to report that we increased performance of ArangoDB on average by 35%, while at the same time reduced the memory footprint compared to version 3.1. In combination with a greatly improved cluster management, we think ArangoDB 3.2 is by far our best work. (see release notes for more details)

One key goal of ArangoDB has always been to provide a rock solid platform for building ideas. Our users should always feel safe to try new things with minimal effort by relying on ArangoDB. Todays 3.2 release is an important milestone towards this goal. We’re excited to release such an outstanding product today. Read more

A Reminder on Database Security

01GeneralTags:

With billions of objects and people connected to the internet and your precious data sometimes exposed publicly security is one of the most important topics to discuss. In light of recent ransomware attacks, databases exposed and other breaches we’d like to share a quick reminder on how to secure your ArangoDB environment.

Attacks can be prevented with the security protections built into the product. We strive to prevent possible security issues by giving appropriate reminders in our web console when authentication is disabled:

Introducing milestone release model and why is it better

00General, ReleasesTags:

When developing ArangoDB, we want to share with you new features as early as possible. For example, the pregel implementation that will become part of ArangoDB 3.2 was ready for testing weeks before the release date of the first beta release and the final release of 3.2.

Therefore we decided to create intermediate releases, called alpha releases, which contain new feature as early as they became stable. The benefits for the community and also for our developers team are: Read more

Arangochair – a tool for listening to changes in ArangoDB

04GeneralTags: , , ,

The ArangoDB team gave me an opportunity to write a tutorial about arangochair. Arangochair is the first attempt to listen for changes in the database and execute actions like pushing a document to the client or execute an AQL query. Currently it is limited to single nodes.

This tutorial is loosely based on the example at baslr/arangochair-serversendevents-demo

arangochair is a Node.js module hosted on npm which make it fairly easy to install. Just run
npm install arangochair and its installed. Read more

Arangoexport – a tool for exporting data from ArangoDB

00GeneralTags: ,

With the release of the initial alpha of ArangoDB version 3.2 we also include the preview of the new export tool arangoexport. Alpha2 of ArangoDB 3.2 can be downloaded here. An export functionality was initially requested by one of our community members to view an ArangoDB graph view the Cytoscape visualizer.

Arangoexport is capable of exporting a graph or certain collections of a graph to xgmml, Cytoscape’s graph format. But arangoexport is not limited to this. It can also generate JSON or JSONL data exports of arbitrary collections. Read more

ArangoDB 3.0 new Cluster features

02cluster, ReleasesTags: ,

The 3.0 release of ArangoDB will introduce a completely overhauled cluster and marks a major milestone on its road to “zero-maintenance” where you can keep focus on your product instead of your datacenter.

Synchronous replication

Earlier releases of ArangoDB already featured asynchronous replication. This was already a great method to do backups and allowed for failover in case of a disaster. However that was mostly a manual job and furthermore – due to its asynchronous nature – data loss could happen. Read more

ArangoDB Weekly #31 | Official Docker Repo & new Release 2.6.3

00GeneralTags:

ArangoDB is now an Official Repo in the Docker Hub, one of just four additions in the last 2 months. Please try and tell your friends! ArangoDB 2.6 is known as a performance release and we’ve continued to improve the core by killing locks and optimizing code. Looks like we can show some impressive performance boosts soon. Furthermore, Mike Williamson wrote a blog post on modeling data with ArangoDB last week, that is worth to read.

Follow ArangoDB on LinkedIn and add ArangoDB as a skill. We would appreciate your help. Keep an eye on our blog or follow us on Twitter for news about ArangoDB.
