OrientDB Manual 1.7.8

Storages

Any OrientDB database relies on a Storage. OrientDB supports 4 storage types:

  • plocal, persistent disk-based, where the access is made in the same JVM process
  • remote, by using the network to access a remote storage
  • memory, all data remains in memory
  • local, deprecated, it's the first version of disk based storage, but has been replaced by plocal

A Storage is composed of multiple Clusters.
