ArangoDB v3.13 is under development and not released yet. This documentation is not final and potentially incomplete.

cuGraph Adapter

The cuGraph Adapter exports graphs from ArangoDB into RAPIDS cuGraph, a library of collective GPU-accelerated graph algorithms, and vice-versa

ArangoDB now has a closer integration with NetworkX allowing NetworkX users to persist their graphs in ArangoDB & leverage GPU-accelerated graph analytics via cuGraph. Learn more here .

While offering a similar API and set of graph algorithms to NetworkX, RAPIDS cuGraph  library is GPU-based. Especially for large graphs, this results in a significant performance improvement of cuGraph compared to NetworkX. Please note that storing node attributes is currently not supported by cuGraph. In order to run cuGraph, an Nvidia-CUDA-enabled GPU is required.

The cuGraph Adapter repository  is available on Github. Check it out!

Installation

To install the latest release of the cuGraph Adapter, run the following command:

pip install --extra-index-url=https://pypi.nvidia.com cudf-cu11 cugraph-cu11
pip install adbcug-adapter

Quickstart

The following examples show how to get started with the cuGraph Adapter. Check also the interactive tutorial .

import cudf
import cugraph

from arango import ArangoClient
from adbcug_adapter import ADBCUG_Adapter, ADBCUG_Controller

# Connect to ArangoDB
db = ArangoClient().db()

# Instantiate the adapter
adbcug_adapter = ADBCUG_Adapter(db)
