Interesting, OrientDB seems to have really grown lately. It is advertising itself in the same way I talk about my own javascript based opensource database project (http://github.com/amark/gun http://github.com/amark/gun), multi-model, relational/document, graph, multi-master, etc. Obviously Orient is much more mature than mine (not production ready or stable). Maybe I should give OrientDB a try, and see if it stands up to its claims! Great work, keep it up.

  Yeah, could we talk? Give me an email: mark@gunDB.io, I've been talking to the RethinkDB guys, Firebase, Dropbox Datastore, Meteor, etc. Would love to chat with you guys too.

I was very excited about OrientDB when I first tried it a couple of months ago. What's not to love about a graph DB that is faster and freer than Neo4J? I ran into several seemingly independent DB corruption issues. When I read through the OrientDB community forum I saw many reports of issues which should scare you if you use OrientDB as your sole persistence point. It seemed that many of these issues were rapidly fixed but without a link to a bug report or an explanation of the issue. This didn't give me confidence in the development process for the DB. There is copious OrientDB documentation and it looks beautiful and professional, but in my opinion the documentation at times does not answer fundamental questions. I don't like to be a stickler for grammar, but often enough the grammar in the documentation was bad enough that it confused me. It also seemed that the OrientDB is missing some of the advanced indexing functionality that Neo4J gets from integrating Lucene. I'm planning to give OrientDB another try in a year or so.
