# NebulaGraph

## Introduction

**NebulaGraph** is a popular open-source graph database that can handle large volumes of data with milliseconds of latency, scale up quickly, and have the ability to perform fast graph analytics. NebulaGraph has been widely used for social media, recommendation systems, knowledge graphs, security, capital flows, AI, etc. See [our users](https://nebula-graph.io/cases).

The following lists some of **NebulaGraph** features:

* Symmetrically distributed
* Storage and computing separation
* Horizontal scalability
* Strong data consistency by RAFT protocol
* OpenCypher-compatible query language
* Role-based access control for higher-level security
* Different types of graph analytics algorithms

The following figure shows the architecture of the **NebulaGraph** core.

## Notice of Release

NebulaGraph used to be split into three repositories: [Nebula-Graph](https://github.com/vesoft-inc/nebula-graph), [Nebula-Storage,](https://github.com/vesoft-inc/nebula-storage) and [Nebula-Common](https://github.com/vesoft-inc/nebula-common) for versions between v2.0.0 and v2.5.x, which will be archived.

The one and only codebase of NebulaGraph is now [github.com/vesoft-inc/nebula](https://github.com/vesoft-inc/nebula), as it's back to mono-repo since v2.6.0.

Please check the latest release via the documentation: https://docs.nebula-graph.io/.


NebulaGraph 1.x is not actively maintained. Please move to NebulaGraph 2.x.  <br/>
The data format, rpc protocols, clients, etc. are not compatible between NebulaGraph v1.x and v2.x,  but we do offer [upgrade guide](https://docs.nebula-graph.io/2.5.0/4.deployment-and-installation/3.upgrade-nebula-graph/upgrade-nebula-graph-to-250/).

To use the stable release, see [NebulaGraph 1.0](https://github.com/vesoft-inc/nebula).
