| Description | An ontology engine that runs graph analytics and logical reasoning over existing data sources without moving data, using the Vadalog (Datalog+/-) reasoning language. Produces deterministic, fully traceable results with row-level provenance across sources such as Snowflake, Databricks, PostgreSQL, and Neo4j. | A multi-model database written in Rust that combines document, graph, and relational paradigms. Uses inter-document record links for graph traversals, with ACID transactions and row-level permissions. |
