Akutan is a distributed knowledge graph store (RDF/triple store) written in Go, designed to hold large graphs that don't fit on a single server. It supports SPARQL-style querying, transactional updates, and historical snapshots, serializing writes through a central log.

Use cases

  • store and query a large RDF knowledge graph across multiple servers
  • run rich graph queries over billions of interconnected facts
  • power real-time interfaces backed by a knowledge graph
  • complement machine learning applications with structured knowledge
  • explore historical snapshots of a graph over time

When to choose

  • your graph data is too large for a single-server triple store
  • you need transactional updates and historical global snapshots
  • your write rate is modest (tens of thousands of changes per second)

When to avoid

  • you need production-critical reliability - it's explicitly not production-ready
  • you need very high write throughput that scales with cluster size
  • you prefer property graph or SQL data models over RDF triples
