Store anything, connect everything, search it all? Sure thing! 😃
Ember Nexus API is a dynamic and versatile REST-API that leverages the power of graphs to provide flexible and secure data storage and retrieval for data-minded people. It is open source and can be hosted on your own hardware - we currently support AMD and ARM architectures.
Ember Nexus offers a range of cutting-edge features to meet your data storage needs, including:
- Graph-based data model: Ember Nexus uses the graph database Neo4j internally, which enables you to connect any data element to any other data element and efficiently search long and recursive relations.
- Access through UUID: Ember Nexus assigns a UUID to every storable element, making it easy to retrieve and manage data. User can provide their own UUIDs as well, although this feature is disabled by default.
- Near real-time search: Ember Nexus supports full-text search that is fast and responsive. Most of Elasticsearch's features are directly available while not bypassing the security model.
- Secure by default: User-created data is only visible to the owner by default. Sharing data requires explicit rules, which are recursive and optionally limited in access scope and other features.
- High-quality software: We invested quite a bit of time to make sure that this software is as stable as possible. We employ code linters, unit tests, feature tests, memory leak tests, mutant tests, and more. Most examples in the documentation are automatically checked for deprecations.
See our milestone and issue list on GitHub for planned features.
Ember Nexus is a powerful tool for a range of use cases, including:
- Private cloud: Use Ember Nexus to create your own private cloud, similar to Nextcloud.
