#arangodb looks interesting. Can I ask what use cases and/or types of projects you’re using it in?

Also, they do a lot with AI. I haven't dibbed my toes into that yet.

3) I'm working on a e-commerce product recommendations where you get product suggestions based on simularity.
This uses ArangoSearch as a starter for a graph query as well.

4) As a research tool to find related data within old martial arts manuscripts. So, related techniques, influences etc.

2) Arangosearch, the build in search engine, let's me fuzzy search for data as a starting point for a (graph) query.

So, I don't need another database like Elasticsearch nor a vector store.

It sure is! I mainly build websites and (web)apps.

1) The basic document model is great for webpage data, I use dynamic page routing, so have different page types 'defined' within the same collection. They share the same base data with addative type dependent data.

First off, there's the #arangodb #php driver. An easy to use client for accessing the database's powerful features.

Responses are returned as plain decoded json, so it makes no usage assumptions.

Furthermore it is actively maintained, the php8.4 version will arrive soon

Then there's the AQL query builder. AQL is #arangodb 's query language, it's very intuitive and easy to learn.

FluentAql contains methods for most of the AQL functions, which lets you build your queries programmatically.

There are RAW methods for missing features

Last package in this set of #arangodb #php packages is the #laravel driver:

It is approaching v1.0, which aims to make Arangodb usage as compatible as possible with the classic #sql approach of Laravel.

Later versions will integrate more Arangodb specific features like nested components, list relations, graph relations etc.

Help and constructive criticism are much appreciated on all of these packages.

So give it a try and let me know what you think.
