OrientDB Manual 1.7.8

Installation

OrientDB is available in two editions:

Community Edition This edition is released as an open source project under the Apache 2 license. This license allows unrestricted free usage for both open source and commercial projects.
Enterprise Edition OrientDB Enterprise edition is commercial software built on top of the Community Edition. Enterprise is developed by the same team that developed the OrientDB engine. It serves as an extension of the Community Edition by providing Enterprise features such as:
- Query Profiler
- Distributed Clustering configuration
- Metrics Recording
- Live Monitoring with configurable Alerts

An Enterprise Edition license is included without charge if you purchase Support.

Prerequisites

Both editions run on every operating system that has an implementation of Java Virtual Machine (JVM), for example:

All Linux distributions, including ARM (Raspberry Pi, etc.)
Mac OS X
Microsoft Windows from 95/NT or later
Solaris
HP-UX
IBM AIX

This means the only requirement for using OrientDB is to have Java version 1.6 or higher installed.

Download Binaries

The easiest and fastest way to start using OrientDB is to download binaries from the Official OrientDB Download Page.

Compile Your Own Community Edition

Alternatively, you can clone the Community Edition project from GitHub and compile it. This allows you access to the latest functionality without waiting for a distribution binary. To build the Community Edition, you must first install the Apache Ant tool and follow these steps:

> git clone git@github.com:orientechnologies/orientdb.git
> cd orientdb
> ant clean install

After the compilation, all the binaries are placed under the ../releases directory.

Change Permissions

The Mac OS X, Linux, and UNIX based operating systems typically require you to change the permissions to execute scripts. The following command will apply the necessary permissions for these scripts in the bin directory of the OrientDB distribution:

> chmod 755 bin/*.sh
> chmod -R 777 config
