GraphDB Introduction
31/07/2026
Graphwise GraphDB is a highly efficient, scalable and robust graph database with RDF (Resource Description Framework) and SPARQL support. GraphDB is one of the few triplestores that can perform real-time semantic inferencing at scale, allowing users to derive new semantic facts from existing facts.With excellent enterprise features, integration with external search applications, LLM Graph Retrieval-Augmented Generation (Graph RAG) capabilities, and compatibility with industry standards, GraphDB is the preferred database choice of both small independent developers and big enterprises.
With excellent enterprise features, integration with external search applications, LLM Graph Retrieval-Augmented Generation (Graph RAG) capabilities, and compatibility with industry standards, GraphDB is the preferred database choice of both small independent developers and big enterprises.
Highlights of GraphDB include:
Dedicated community and commercial support.
Integration with Elasticsearch, OpenSearch, Lucene, Solr, and other high-performance search applications.
Clusters and multi-region deployments support.
Connectors, which provide fast keyword and faceted searches that are typically implemented by an external component. All GraphDB editions include connectors for Lucene and ChatGPT, and the Enterprise Edition includes connectors for Solr, Elasticsearch, OpenSearch, and Kafka.
Implementation of the RDF4J framework interfaces and the W3C SPARQL Protocol specification. Learn more about RDF4J and the roles of its layers in the Architecture and components chapter of this documentation’s Reference section.
Support for all RDF serialization formats.
Availability as a cloud deployment on Amazon Web Services and on Microsoft Azure.
Reasoning and query evaluation are performed over a persistent storage layer. Loading, reasoning, and query evaluation proceed extremely quickly even against huge ontologies and knowledge bases.
GraphDB can manage billions of explicit statements on desktop hardware and handle tens of billions of statements on commodity server hardware. According to the LDBC Semantic Publishing Benchmark, it is one of the most scalable OWL repositories currently available.
