kin-db: how it fits into Kin.

The storage engine inside Kin keeps code and its connections together. This page explains its role; it is not a separate service you need to run.

How this works in Kin

An embedded graph engine, not a server you run.

Open source, Apache-2.0

The embedded engine Kin is built on: graph storage, snapshots and temporal branching, plus integrated lexical (BM25-style) and vector (HNSW) retrieval. Code-native, not a Cypher server you have to run.
