Comparison of MongoDB, Neo4j and ArangoDB databases using the developed data generator for NoSQL databases

Abstract

NoSQL databases are gaining more and more popularity and are an important alternative to relational databases. Examples of such databases are Neo4j, MongoDB and ArangoDB. These databases are described in this article, compared with each other, and the performance results for adding an object to the database, deleting an object, searching and populating the database are presented. Results show that the fastest database is MongoDB, except for one measurement of removal.
