The official README describes ArcadeDB as a new engine written from scratch while reusing a heavily modified OrientDB SQL engine and some utility classes, which makes its lineage unusually explicit for database package nerds: it is not just another SQL wrapper, but a post-OrientDB attempt to keep multi-model database ideas moving in an open source package. The public GitHub repository was created on 2021-08-16, and the first GitHub release listed through the official releases API is 21.9.1, published on 2021-09-21. The README now describes Java 21 packages as current and notes that Java 17 support is kept on a separate branch, reflecting the project's move with modern JVM baselines. ### Adoption history ArcadeDB is distributed as downloadable releases, Maven artifacts, Docker images, and a Homebrew formula. Its README highlights Docker, Kubernetes, Maven Central, and custom distribution builds, while the Homebrew formula wraps the packaged server and console binaries as `arcadedb-server` and `arcadedb-console`. GitHub metadata shows a modest but real open source footprint, with hundreds of stars and forks by 2026. For package-manager users, its presence in Homebrew and Scoop matters because it turns a JVM database server into a single-command local install for experiments, migrations, and embedded/server testing. ### How it is used Typical local use is to start the server, open ArcadeDB Studio on port 2480, and interact through SQL, Cypher, Gremlin, GraphQL, MongoDB-compatible, Redis-compatible, PostgreSQL-wire, HTTP/JSON, or embedded APIs depending on the workload. The packaged server reads logging configuration from `config/arcadedb-log.properties`; users and server credentials are represented in `config/server-users.jsonl`, with root password bootstrapping also supported through the `arcadedb.server.rootPassword` JVM property. ### Why package nerds care ArcadeDB is interesting as a package because it bundles several database personalities into one server tarball, which is exactly the sort of tool that benefits from Homebrew-style wrapper scripts and well-known config directories. Its release stream and custom package builder also make it a useful case study in packaging optional Java modules without forcing every local installation to carry every protocol and UI component. ### Timeline - 2021-08-16: GitHub repository created. - 2021-09-21: First GitHub release, 21.9.1. - 2024: README notes Java 21 compatibility from version 24.4.1 onward. - 2026-06-03: Latest official GitHub release observed for this batch, 26.6.1. ### Related projects - OrientDB is the direct historical reference point named by the ArcadeDB project. - The README documents compatibility surfaces for Neo4j Cypher, Apache TinkerPop Gremlin, MongoDB drivers, Redis drivers, PostgreSQL wire protocol, and HTTP/JSON clients. ### Sources - - - - ## Security Notes broad file, network, media, or database tool signal. formula declares a Homebrew service. - **Geiger risk:** orange / medium - broad file, network, media, or database tool signal - formula declares a Homebrew service ## Configuration and credential file locations These source-backed paths show where this package keeps local settings or durable credentials.
