party services or extra costs.
Multi-Model
Document Model, Key-Value,
Attachments, Counters, Indexes,
and Time-Series.
As a NoSQL database, RavenDB has many advantages over its relational counterparts.
RavenDB is a NoSQL Database
Avoids Typical RDBMS Problems
●
NO
Full table scans due to queries without
indexes
●
NO
SELECT N+1 problem
●
NO
SQL Injection attacks
●
NO
JOINs to connect multiple tables
Schemaless
●
Ability to store semi-structured or even
unstructured data
●
Fast prototyping
●
Fast development
Distributed
●
Natively distributed, unlike RDBMS
●
Supports topologies that can span over millions
of nodes if needed
●
Easy to scale out
Speed
●
Optimized for blazingly fast queries
●
None of the typical RDBMS bottlenecks
●
Map/Reduce aggregation features deliver
results almost instantaneously even for millions
of entries.
RavenDB gives you all the advantages of a NoSQL
database without sacrificing data integrity or
performance.
●
ACID Transactions over multiple documents and multiple
collections
●
Single-node
and
Cluster-wide
ACID transactions
●
Transactions are ACID by default – no associated
performance loss
ACIDity in RavenDB
RavenDB has been carefully designed to be secure by
default. No need for complicated documentation or
processes. Your data is safe in transit and at rest.
●
X.509 certificates are used for authentication and
authorization
●
Use of established security protocols such as TLS and
HTTPS
●
No default usernames or passwords
●
Ports are closed by default
●
Data can be encrypted at rest
●
Backups are encrypted
Secure By Default
RavenDB was built to be a distributed database, with
no single point of failure. Like an octopus: if an arm
goes numb, you still got lots to work with.
High Availability
●
Master-master setup lets you read and write to every
node. If nodes lose connection with one another or a local
node goes offline, your database will stay operational.
●
In a cluster of five nodes, any two nodes can be down at
once and the cluster will still be fully operational
●
Even with just one node available, your application will be
able to read and write to the database
●
Clusters react and accommodate to usage patterns and
problems to keep your application up, running, and fast.
Find exactly what you are looking for with easy to use
querying functionality.
Advanced Query Engine
●
Patching (update) operations support
JavaScript
●
Built-in support for paging
●
Full-text search with suggestions, geospatial
searching, result boosting, facets, and
complex aggregations with Map/Reduce
RavenDB uses Raven Query Language (RQL)
●
A simple and human-friendly declarative
language inspired by SQL
from
Employees
where
FirstName
=
'Nancy'
●
Supports JavaScript, making it more powerful
than SQL
●
You can create server-side JSON projections so
your database can serve you view models that
can be used right away
The Management Studio is a fully loaded graphical user
interface (GUI). It lets you monitor operational and
performance metrics, and perform tasks without need
for coding.
RavenDB Management Studio
●
A web application served by the database
●
Multiplatform, so there’s no need to install anything
The RavenDB Management Studio is:
●
Highly intuitive, with a point and click interface
●
Able to create code, set up queries, monitor indexes
and Map/Reduce aggregates in our all-in-one
interface
●
A native part of RavenDB that comes free with
every license: Community, Professional, and
Enterprise
RavenDB is built with compliance in mind and works
flawlessly with major industry standards.
Compliancy
Easy compliance with:
●
PCI
(Payment Card Industry-Data Security Standard)
●
HIPAA
(Healthcare Insurance Portability and Accountability Act)
●
GDPR
(General Data Protection Regulation)
●
CCPA
(California Consumer Privacy Act)
Testimonials
One of my engineers was freaking out when he updated the size of
the RavenDB nodes without any downtime. Apparently that was a
multi-day coordinated effort recently with our MongoDB setup.
Using RavenDB, it took
six months to go from the drawing board to
full release
of our product. If we went with SQL, it would have taken
a year.
✓
Fully transactional from the start
✓
Improving performance for over a decade in the ACID framework for
over a decade.
✓
All queries always use an index. If one does not exist, RavenDB will
create an index for you.
✓
Aggregation queries are very cheap and fast, Map/Reduce indexing is
done ahead of time.
✓
RQL – RavenDB’s query language – is very similar to SQL, with
JavaScript support.
✓
Support for complex patching
✓
Powerful JavaScript-empowered indexes and queries
✓
Master-Master cluster replication let’s you work offline and get the
most out of a distributed system.
✓
Automatic and Aggressive caching supported
✓
Safe by Default
✓
Fully functional free license
×

×
Queries don’t always use indexes, and may need to perform (very slow)
full scans.
×
Aggregation queries require computation during query time.
×
No support for pre-computed Map/Reduce operations
×
Mongo queries are based on JSON syntax. They are very complicated to
create and understand.
×
No support for complex patch operations
×
Master-worker cluster replication creates a single point of failure.
×
Client-integrated caching not supported
×
Not safe by default, number of high-profile data breaches.
×
Advanced features only in paid packages
