Blazegraph vs JanusGraph: What are the differences?
What is Blazegraph? An ultra-high performance database for big graphs offering both Semantic Web and Graph Database. It is a fully open-source high-performance graph database supporting the RDF data model and RDR. It operates as an embedded database or over a client/server REST API.
What is JanusGraph? Open-source, distributed graph database. It is a scalable graph database optimized for storing and querying graphs containing hundreds of billions of vertices and edges distributed across a multi-machine cluster. It is a transactional database that can support thousands of concurrent users executing complex graph traversals in real time.
Blazegraph and JanusGraph belong to "Graph Databases" category of the tech stack.
Some of the features offered by Blazegraph are:
- High Performance Native graph database
- Blueprints API or RDF/SPARQL
- Single machine data storage to ~50B triples/quads (RWStore)
On the other hand, JanusGraph provides the following key features:
- Elastic and linear scalability for a growing data and user base
- Data distribution and replication for performance and fault tolerance
- Multi-datacenter high availability and hot backups
