TypeDB's core philosophy is centered on a strong type system, making it particularly well-suited for knowledge-intensive applications. Key
6-
features include full ACID compliance for transactional integrity, a logical schema for modeling complex data, and a robust replication
7-
system for high availability.

TypeDB is a polymorphic database designed to represent and query complex systems. TypeDB's core philosophy is centered on a strong type
6+
system, making it particularly well-suited for knowledge-intensive applications. Key features include full ACID compliance for transactional
7+
integrity with snapshot-level Isolation, a logical schema for modeling complex data, and a robust replication system using the Raft
8+
consensus algorithm for high availability. At its foundation, TypeDB is built on top of RocksDB as its storage engine, providing a robust
9+
and high-performance base for data persistence.

Clients and applications connect to TypeDB primarily through language-specific drivers that communicate over gRPC for efficient,
12+
high-throughput operations. For broader compatibility, an HTTP endpoint is also available. TypeDB is offered as a fully managed service on
13+
TypeDB Cloud, providing flexible options for projects of any scale and as a free, open-source Community Edition (CE) for self-hosted
14+
deployments.
