EdgeDB is an open-source database designed as a spiritual successor to SQL
and the relational paradigm. It aims to solve some hard design problems
that make existing databases unnecessarily onerous to use.

Powered by the Postgres query engine under the hood, EdgeDB thinks about
schema the same way you do: as objects with properties connected by links.
It's like a relational database with an object-oriented data model, or a
graph database with a strict schema.
Register now <https://lu.ma/edgedb> for EdgeDB 2.0’s Launch Day on July 28
10:00a - 11:30am PDT for a series of online talks on this amazing
graph-relational database.
