We’re 100% committed to going back to open-source on an Apache 2.0 license as soon as possible. In the meantime, you can continue to deploy us completely for free, however you like, using the compiled docker container.
If your use case is OLAP based, please check it out PuppyGraph. It’s a graph query engine that sits on top of your Lakehouse (no ETL required). Our benchmark has shown consistently that 10-hop queries across billions of edges in <2 seconds. Our customers including some most data demanding companies like Coinbase, Datadog, Palo Alto Network, Netskope, AMD, etc.
It's not, its actually our prod db with direct user usage - we self host a large dgraph cluster. We have a very large number of people manage their car and car histories with us and host a full replica of the UK MOT Database.
We're fine with clickhouse and redshift for the OLAP work we do. I've been looking at ParaQuery lately if I really want to speed that up.
We’re just two young founders sharing what we’ve been building, so I’ll take the drive-by competitor plug as a compliment :)
Definitely a different focus though. Helix is OLTP, built for operational graph + vector workloads, especially apps/agent memory where low-latency traversals and writes are concerned.
For vector search we have warm and cold p99s of approx 20ms and 400ms respectively.
For FTS, warm and cold query p99s of approx 15ms and 250ms respectively.
You can query HelixDB using JSON or directly in your programming language of choice by using our Rust, TypeScript, Go or Python SDKs.
We’ve found AI is very good at working with the SDKs and JSON itself to query, making the development experience much better than before: https://docs.helix-db.com/database/querying
tpuffer is a vector/fts database. Surreal is a bit of an "everything database".
We're a graph database with vector and FTS capabilities. Our vector and FTS benchmarks are comparable with tpuffer, but you would primarily use us for building whole applications, knowledge graphs, or AI memory/retrieval. Anything that is relationship intense.
Let me know if this properly answers your question
Looking forward to looking into the generalised AI memory layer when it comes out.
Congrats on the launch!

What's your p99 like for multi hops?

I'm more concerned about if the p99s stay consistent when things get spikey.
dgraph is fine otherwise...

Both of these benchmarks were run on 1m docs.
