EliasDB is a lightweight graph database written in Go that stores data as nodes connected by edges, with support for transactions, partitions, and full-text search. It can be embedded in Go applications or run as a standalone server with a REST API, GraphQL interface, and its own SQL-like query language (EQL).

Use cases

• store application data as a graph
• embed a transactional graph database in a Go application
• query graph data with GraphQL or a SQL-like language
• run a standalone graph database server with a REST API
• full-text search over graph nodes
• cluster graph data across multiple instances

When to choose

• you want a lightweight, dependency-free graph database in Go
• you need an embeddable database with transaction support
• you prefer GraphQL or a custom query language over SQL
• you want a standalone server with REST API and user management out of the box

When to avoid

• you need a battle-tested database at massive scale
• you require SQL or wide ecosystem tooling support
• you need relational or document data models rather than graphs
• you need multi-model or heavy analytics workloads
