AionDB: PostgreSQL-compatible SQL, graph, and vector database in Rust

AionDB is a Rust-based database engine compatible with PostgreSQL wire protocol and ORMs, supporting SQL, graph queries, and vector search. It provides a unified query surface for relational records, graph relationships, and semantic retrieval, while allowing use of existing PostgreSQL tooling. The project is in alpha with measured performance claims and transparent benchmarks.

Key points

  • Built in Rust, compatible with PostgreSQL wire protocol and ORMs like Prisma and SQLAlchemy; works with existing migration tools.
  • Unified query surface: MATCH patterns combined with SQL, supporting relational, graph, and vector operations in one query.
  • Flexible data model: tables as source of truth, with graph labels and vector columns for connected data and semantic retrieval.
  • Measured claims: competitive on many SQL workloads, faster than SurrealDB in tested cases; publishes reproducible benchmarks.
