EdgeDB is an open-source relational database developed by EdgeDB, Inc.
History[edit]
EdgeDB was founded by core Python developer[2][3][4][5] Yury Selivanov and co-founder Elvis Pranskevichus[6], who began working together as consultants in Toronto, Canada in 2008[7]. The idea for EdgeDB came from an internal framework that they had built as a consulting company in order to more effectively leverage Relational Database Management Systems (RDBMs), which they then decided to further develop and make public.[8] The development of EdgeDB was first mentioned in 2016 by its founders in their announcement of a PostgreSQL client library for Python known as asyncpg due to the need for "high-performance, low-latency access to the advanced features of PostgreSQL".[9]
EdgeDB Ltd. raised its first financing in 2019 with $4 million from Accel and a further $15 million in series A funding in 2022,[10] leading to a larger headcount and development of its cloud service.[11]
Characteristics[edit]
EdgeDB describes itself as a graph-relational database, namely an object-oriented data model and strict graph schema and query language on top of a relational database core that uses PostgreSQL as its query engine.[12] Its query language is known as EdgeQL.[8]
Client libraries[edit]
EdgeDB client libraries have been written for JavaScript/TypeScript, Go, Python, Rust, .NET, Java, and Elixir.[14]
Comparison of SQL and EdgeQL[edit]
EdgeDB's object types are analogous to tables in SQL[8], while queries return a structured result object as opposed to a list of rows.[12]
The following example shows roughly equivalent EdgeQL and SQL queries used to display films in which a certain actor plays a role, the average rating and a top 5 list of actors in the films based on their order in the credits.[15]
| SQL | EdgeQL |
|---|---|
SELECT
title,
Actors.name AS actor_name,
(SELECT avg(score)
FROM Movie_Reviews
WHERE movie_id = Movie.id) AS rating
FROM
Movie
CROSS JOIN LATERAL (
SELECT name
FROM
Movie_Actors
INNER JOIN Person
ON Movie_Actors.person_id = Person.id
WHERE Movie_Actors.movie_id = Movie.id
ORDER BY Movie_Actors.credits_order
FETCH FIRST 5 ROWS ONLY
) AS Actors
WHERE
'Zendaya' IN (
SELECT Person.name
FROM
Movie_Actors
INNER JOIN Person
ON Movie_Actors.person_id = Person.id
)
|
select
Movie {
title,
rating := math::mean(.ratings.score)
actors: {
name
} order by @credits_order
limit 5,
}
filter
"Zendaya" in .actors.name
