Graph Engine vs. Nebula Graph vs. Neo4j vs. Python Comparison Chart

Graph Engine (GE) is a distributed in-memory data processing engine, underpinned by a strongly-typed RAM store and a general distributed computation engine. The distributed RAM store provides a globally addressable high-performance key-value store over a cluster of machines. Through the RAM store, GE enables the fast random data access power over a large distributed data set. The capability of fast data exploration and distributed parallel computing makes GE a natural large graph processing platform. GE supports both low-latency online query processing and high-throughput offline analytics on billion-node large graphs. Schema does matter when we need to process data efficiently. Strongly-typed data modeling is crucial for compact data storage, fast data access, and clear data semantics. GE is good at managing billions of run-time objects of varied sizes. One byte counts as the number of objects goes large. GE provides fast memory allocation and reallocation with high memory ratios.

Neo4j’s graph data platform is purpose-built to leverage not only data but also data relationships. Using Neo4j, developers build intelligent applications that traverse today's large, interconnected datasets in real time. Powered by a native graph storage and processing engine, Neo4j’s graph database delivers an intuitive, flexible and secure database for unique, actionable insights.
