Co-founder here. TerminusX is the cloud version of TerminusDB 10.0 [1] and is in public beta now. We went back to the drawing board and decided to really simplify the interface while making the concept of the document more central and makin

That's github based for collaboration I think. The one mentioned in the post VersionXL [1] is based on the cloud version of TerminusDB (co-founder here), which is an open source revision control database. It uses delta encoding for upd

Lots of SaaS services, like Google sheets, go the quick and dirty route: one central database and the UI displays a view which you all work on together. That's not collaboration imho - and no dev shop would accept that as a reasonable

Co-founder here. We're data versioning people AND people that love Excel. We constantly lamented the fact that there is no proper revision control for Excel and eventually decided to do something about it! Excel is one of the most wide

I strongly agree with this - RDF is fine and there are some great concepts in the SemWeb world (IRIs for example), but OWL and SPARQL are confusing and can be off-putting, especially when it is all rolled together. The latest iteration of o

We built TerminusDB[1], our OSS knowledge graph, using succinct data structures. As we have a immutable delta encoding approach to allow domain teams to build and curate data products that they then share, this has been a very fruitful comb

TerminusDB's WOQL deals with types. As with RefineDB, TDB is designed to work with nested documents.

Really interesting concept which has a lot of explanation power. I work with some of the people behind this idea on a global historical databank called Seshat: http://seshatdatabank.info/ . Idea is to record all of the polit

In the case of TerminusDB - which was mentioned in another comment - a branch is just a pointer, so isn't expensive. You basically get free clones, but don't have the risk of lots of messy copies of data everywhere

Yes - branching both schema and data in terminus - becoming more JSON oriented too with a new document API

this is a really interesting way to think about it and something that I've given a fair amount of thought to as we embark on a data mesh journey - how does a domain team serve up a schema like an API, how does it evolve, and how do we

they are a solid product - graph and document is a good mix. don't listen to the negative postgres fundos (especially ones who don't understand what a solid and performative database Mongo has become)

that makes sense - I suppose using my model you could mask some of the data in a versioned graph or a collection contained in the database that can be surfaced up to other users who can then clone the collection that excludes PII. You could

Yes - pachyderm is good for managing and running distributed data pipelines on flat files There are also versioned databases like TerminusDB and Dolt that try to do similar in the database

I'm having a hard time visualizing this - are we talking outside devs (consultants) or folks in a different jurisdiction who don't have rights under law, or just a company administrative policy? Agree that fake data can work well,

Managing Databases in a CI/CD pipeline is frankly difficult. Applications are developed continuously, different versions of the application need to run in test, dev and staging environments, each of which has different data and a diffe

There seems to be a growth in the number of time traveling immutable-first databases available. We have OpenCrux, Datomic, TerminusDB, Noms, Dolt, and now Immudb. Three using datalog for query and two forcing SQL (not sure about Noms). What
