ArcadeData/arcadedb 25.10.1

on GitHub

We're excited to announce the release of ArcadeDB 25.10.1!

This version introduces a major new feature: official Python Bindings for embedded use. It also delivers significant query and indexing enhancements, particularly for LIST data types, along with a solid round of bug fixes to improve stability, SQL/Cypher compatibility, and core performance.

🚀 New Features

• Official Python Bindings: You can now run ArcadeDB in an embedded mode directly within your Python applications! This opens up new possibilities for high-performance, in-process graph and document data management for Python developers. Thanks @tae898!
  • (Implements [#2662](https://www.google.com/search?q=https://github.com/ArcadeData/arcadedb/issues/2662) via [#2737](#2737), [#2696](#2696))
• LIST Indexing by ITEM: Implements indexing for LIST data types by ITEM. This drastically improves query performance and capabilities when filtering or looking up records based on the contents of a list.
  • (Implements [#1593](#1593) via [#2620](#2620), [#2720](#2720))
