TerminusDB
Open-source knowledge graph database with git-like version control, queried over REST, GraphQL and WOQL.
TerminusDB is a knowledge graph database that stores JSON documents as graph structures and records every change as an immutable commit, so its history can be branched, merged, diffed and queried by time. The server runs in a Docker container and exposes REST, GraphQL and WOQL interfaces. Gettier maintains the project, which is also offered as a managed service and as an Enterprise edition.
Worth knowing
The name TerminusCMS appears on older pages: the cloud hosting page says it was a former name of the hosted service, now part of the TerminusDB Cloud product name, so the record describes the database and does not present it as a content management system. The managed service is in early access.
