AgensSQL:

Introduction:

AgensSQL is an open-source, multi-model Graph database that is built on top of the PostgreSQL database management system. It provides a highly scalable and flexible platform for managing and querying complex data structures, including graphs, trees, and key-value pairs. In this report, we will explore the features and capabilities of AgensSQL, and how it can be used to manage complex data structures.

packages

  • pgpool-II: middleware for connection pooling, load balancing, and high-availability using replication
  • PostGIS: adds support for geographic objects to enable location queries in SQL
  • PgBouncer: a lightweight connection pooler for PostgreSQL using session and transaction pooling
  • PGQ: a queueing solution for asynchronous batch processing without blocking live transactions
  • PL/Proxy: a database partitioning system implemented as a PL Language
  • pg_hint_plan: controls execution plan using hinting phrases
  • POWA: PostgreSQL Workload Analyzer that gathers performance stats and provides real-time charts and graphs for monitoring and tuning PostgreSQL servers
  • Pgloader: loads data into PostgreSQL using the COPY streaming protocol from MySQL, SQLite, or dBase
  • Orafce: a module with all Oracle functions and operators compatible with Oracle.

Some Features:

  • Multi-Model Database: AgensSQL supports multiple data models, including graph, document, key-value, and relational databases.
  • High Availability: AgensSQL supports high availability through replication and failover mechanisms.
  • Integrated Query Language: AgensSQL provides an integrated query language that allows for the querying of multiple data models in a single query.

Pros

  • Document Management: AgensSQL supports document management, allowing for the storage and retrieval of unstructured data.
  • Key-Value Pair Management: AgensSQL supports key-value pair management, allowing for the storage and retrieval of simple data structures.
  • Multi-Model Querying: AgensSQL allows for the querying of multiple data models in a single query, providing a powerful and flexible platform for data analysis.
