MongoDB is an open-source document-oriented distributed database built for modern applications. MongoDB uses JSON-like documents with optional schemas and is classified as a NoSQL database. The database is freely distributed under the Server Side Public License, but MongoDB provides commercial version of the database for enterprise-scale applications.

ArangoDB is a database system that was designed to support key/value, document, and graph data to be stored together, and queried via a unified language called AQL. The project is developed by ArangoDB GmbH, and released free and open-source under the Apache License 2.0. The universal "native multi-level" design of the database allows for a flexible approach when structuring and building an application, a feature that many have come to love.

OrientDB is an open-source NoSQL database management system written in Java. The multi-model database supports graph, document, key/value, and object models, where relationships are managed as in graph databases with direct connections between records. The database is extremly efficient and can store over 220,000 records per second on common hardware, and traverse thousands of records in milisecons. OrientDB scales well on multiple machines, thanks to the multi-master replication where there is no single bottleneck on writes like with master-slave replication.

RedisGraph is the first free and open source queryable Property Graph database to use sparse matrices to represent the adjacency matrix in graphs and linear algebra to query the graph.

Neo4j is a commercially provided graph database management system developed by Neo4j, Inc. The graph database is fundamentally different to the relational model found in relational database management systems (RDBMS). With Neo4j, each data record, or node, stores direct pointers to all the nodes it's connected to. The database is also designed to perform complex queries with complex connections orders of magnitude faster. Neo4j is ACID-compliant and suited for projects that requires complicated relationship structures.

JanusGraph is a free and open-source distributed, scalable graph database optimized for storing and querying graphs containing hundreds of billions of vertices and edges distributed across a multi-machine cluster. The project is managed by The Linux Foundation and is released under the Apache Software License 2.0. Large corporations like Expero, Google, GRAKN.AI, Hortonworks, IBM and Amazon also supports the project.
