Overview

What is EdgeDB?

EdgeDB (renamed Gel) is an open-source graph-relational database built on top of PostgreSQL. It replaces the classic tabular model with an object model : data is described by object types with properties and links to other objects, allowing you to traverse relationships without stacking JOINs.

It brings its own query language, EdgeQL (while retaining SQL and GraphQL access), a strongly typed declarative schema, and a built-in migration engine. Modern application components are also included: authentication (OAuth, magic links, passkeys), connection pooling, and GenAI extensions (automatic embeddings, RAG endpoints).

On the ecosystem side, EdgeDB offers official clients for TypeScript, Python, Go, Rust, .NET, Java, and Dart, a typed query builder, and a full UI for schema and data exploration. Since storage relies on PostgreSQL, your data remains exportable to standard Postgres, without proprietary lock-in.

FAQ

You might be wondering…

Are EdgeDB and Gel the same thing?

Yes. EdgeDB was renamed Gel by its publisher. The engine, the EdgeQL language, and the ecosystem remain identical ; both names still coexist in the documentation.

Is my data locked in a proprietary format?

No. EdgeDB is built on PostgreSQL : your data remains exportable to standard Postgres. No proprietary lock-in.

Where is the data hosted?

On the DINAO infrastructure in France, in one of the available datacenters. Your data does not leave the territory.

What languages can I use for my application?

EdgeDB provides official clients for TypeScript, Python, Go, Rust, .NET, Java, and Dart, as well as SQL and GraphQL access.

Are backups included?

Yes. DINAO performs daily encrypted backups and ensures restoration on request, with a retention period to be specified.
