Common questions

Is ArcadeDB MCP Server safe?

It passed 3 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed today, and the latest version (26.4.1-SNAPSHOT) reached the registry 8 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Docker on your computer.

What can I use instead?

Multi Model DBMS Built for Extreme Performance

Test suite Runs Status Java CI - test every push to main HA integration (Raft, embedded) daily HA resilience (Docker, fault injection) daily HA chaos (randomized faults, 60 min) weekly Jepsen (consistency, fault injection) daily Load tests daily Bolt driver-version matrix daily Native image build daily Benchmarks weekly

ArcadeDB is a Multi-Model DBMS created by Luca Garulli, the same founder of OrientDB, after SAP's acquisition. Written from scratch with a brand-new engine made of Alien Technology, ArcadeDB is able to crunch millions of records per second on common hardware with minimal resource usage. ArcadeDB reuses OrientDB's SQL engine (heavily modified) and some utility classes. It's written in LLJ: Low Level Java - still Java21+ but only using low level APIs to leverage advanced mechanical sympathy techniques and reduce Garbage Collector pressure. Highly optimized for extreme performance, it runs from a Raspberry Pi to multiple servers on the cloud.

ArcadeDB is fully transactional DBMS with support for ACID transactions, structured and unstructured data, native graph engine (no joins but links between records), full-text indexing, geospatial querying, and advanced security.

ArcadeDB supports the following models:

Graph Database (compatible with Neo4j Cypher, Apache Tinkerpop Gremlin and OrientDB SQL)
Document Database (compatible with the MongoDB driver + MongoDB queries and OrientDB SQL)
Key/Value (compatible with the Redis driver)
Search Engine
Time Series (with InfluxDB Line Protocol, Prometheus remote_write/read, and PromQL support)
Vector Embedding
Geospatial

ArcadeDB understands multiple languages:

SQL (from OrientDB SQL)
Neo4j Cypher (Open Cypher)
Apache Gremlin (Apache Tinkerpop v3.7.x)
GraphQL Language
MongoDB Query Language

ArcadeDB key capabilities:

70+ Built-in Graph Algorithms — Pathfinding, centrality, community detection, link prediction, graph embeddings, and more — all available out of the box
Parallel Query Execution — SQL queries leverage multiple CPU cores for faster execution on large datasets
Materialized Views — Pre-computed query results stored and automatically maintained
MCP Server — Built-in Model Context Protocol server for AI assistant and LLM integration
AI Assistant — Integrated AI assistant in Studio (Beta) for query help and database management
Geospatial Indexing — Native spatial queries and proximity searches with geo.* SQL functions
TimeSeries — Columnar storage with Gorilla/Delta-of-Delta compression, InfluxDB/Prometheus ingestion, PromQL queries, Grafana integration
Hash Indexes — Extendible hashing for faster exact-match lookups alongside LSM-Tree indexes

ArcadeDB can be used as:

Embedded from any language on top of the Java Virtual Machine
Embedded from Python via bindings: arcadedb-python-bindings
Remotely by using HTTP/JSON
Remotely by using a Postgres driver (ArcadeDB implements Postgres Wire protocol)
Remotely by using a Redis driver (only a subset of the operations are implemented)
Remotely by using a MongoDB driver (only a subset of the operations are implemented)
By AI assistants via the built-in MCP Server (Model Context Protocol). For Claude Code there is a ready-made plugin: /plugin marketplace add ArcadeData/arcadedb then /plugin install arcadedb@arcadedb

For more information, see the documentation.
