Why a Single Engine Is All You Need for Complex AI Queries and Search
Storage architecture, query optimization, and vector search all work
together within a single engine.
-
1. Dual Storage: One Dataset, Two Storage Strategies
Data is stored in ways optimized for graph traversal and relational queries respectively, yet operates as a single logical DB. The same data is accessed via the fastest path depending on the purpose.

2. TJ Operator: Processing Relationship Traversal and Conditional Queries in One Step
Unlike conventional databases, AkasicDB unifies both operations into a single cost model using the Traversal-Join (TJ) operator. The bottleneck in AI response speed lies not in the model, but in the query executor.

3. A Structure Where Vector Search Operates Alongside Graph and SQL
Most vector DBs only perform standalone searches. In AkasicDB, vector search runs within a single query alongside graph traversal and SQL conditions. This is why it can deliver accurate answers even to complex questions.
