ArangoML Pipeline Cloud – Managed Machine Learning Metadata Service

January 30, 202000GeneralTags: arangoml, Machine Learning

We all know how crucial training data for data scientists is to build quality machine learning models. But when productionizing Machine Learning, Metadata is equally important.

Consider for example:

Capture of Lineage Information (e.g., Which dataset influences which Model?)
Capture of Audit Information (e.g, A given model was trained two months ago with the following training/validation performance)
Reproducible Model Training
Model Serving Policy (e.g., Which model should be deployed in production based on training statistics)

Massive Inserts into ArangoDB With NodeJS

January 9, 202003GeneralTags: API, HTTP, JavaScript

Nothing performs faster than arangoimport and arangorestore for bulk loading or massive inserts into ArangoDB. However, if you need to do additional processing on each row inserted, this blog will help with that type of functionality.

If the data source is a streaming solution (such as Kafka, Spark, Flink, etc), where there is a need to transform data before inserting into ArangoDB, this solution will provide insight into that scenario as well. Read more

ArangoDB and the Cloud Native Ecosystem

November 20, 201900GeneralTags: CNFC, Community, Kubernetes

ArangoDB is joining CNCF to continue its focus on providing a scalable native multi-model database, supporting Graph, Document, and Key-Value data models in the Cloud Native ecosystem.

ArangoDB

ArangoDB is a scalable multi-model model database. What does that mean?

You might have already encountered different NoSQL databases specialized for different data models e.g., graph or document databases. However most real-life use-cases actually require a combination of different data models like Single View of Everything, Machine Learning or even Case Management projects to name but a few.

In such scenarios, single data model databases typically require merging data from different databases and often even reimplementing some database logic in the application layer as well as the effort to operate multiple database in a production environment.

Say Hi To ArangoDB Oasis: A Fully-Managed Multi-Model Database Service

November 14, 201900GeneralTags: Managed Service, Release

ArangoDB Oasis Managed Service After two years of planning, preparation and a few lines of code, you can now enjoy an even more comfortable developers’ life with ArangoDB.

Today, we are happy to announce the launch of ArangoDB’s managed service Oasis – a fully-managed graph database, document, and key-value store, as well as a full-text search engine – in one place.

How we built our managed service on Kubernetes

October 25, 201902GeneralTags: Kubernetes, Managed Service

Running distributed databases on-prem or in the cloud is always a challenge. Over the past years, we have invested a lot to make cluster deployments as simple as possible, both on traditional (virtual) machines (using the ArangoDB Starter) as well as on modern orchestration systems such as Kubernetes (using Kube-ArangoDB).

However, as long as teams have to run databases themselves, the burden of deploying, securing, monitoring, maintaining & upgrading can only be reduced to a certain extent but not avoided.

For this reason, we built ArangoDB Oasis.

Franz Kafka’s talents wouldn’t have been wasted as DBA. Well, reasonable people might disagree.

With this article, we are shouting out a new enterprise feature for ArangoDB: consistent online single server or cluster-wide “hot backups.”
