MatrixOne is the industry's first database to bring Git-style version control to data, combined with MySQL compatibility, AI-native capabilities, and cloud-native architecture.

At its core, MatrixOne is a HTAP (Hybrid Transactional/Analytical Processing) database with a hyper-converged HSTAP engine that seamlessly handles transactional (OLTP), analytical (OLAP), full-text search, and vector search workloads in a single unified system—no data movement, no ETL, no compromises.

Just as Git revolutionized code management, MatrixOne revolutionizes data management. Manage your database like code:

• 📸 Instant Snapshots - Zero-copy snapshots in milliseconds, no storage explosion
• ⏰ Time Travel - Query data as it existed at any point in history
• 🔀 Branch & Merge - Test migrations and transformations in isolated branches
• ↩️ Instant Rollback - Restore to any previous state without full backups
• 🔍 Complete Audit Trail - Track every data change with immutable history

Why it matters: Data mistakes are expensive. Git for Data gives you the safety net and flexibility developers have enjoyed with Git—now for your most critical asset: your data.

The typical modern data stack:

🗄️ MySQL for transactions → 📊 ClickHouse for analytics → 🔍 Elasticsearch for search → 🤖 Pinecone for AI

The problem: 4 databases · Multiple ETL jobs · Hours of data lag · Sync nightmares

MatrixOne replaces all of them:

🎯 One database with native OLTP, OLAP, full-text search, and vector search. Real-time. ACID compliant. No ETL.

docker run -d -p 6001:6001 --name matrixone matrixorigin/matrixone:latest

mysql -h127.0.0.1 -P6001 -p111 -uroot -e "create database demo"

Install Python SDK:

pip install matrixone-python-sdk

Vector search:

from matrixone import Client
from matrixone.orm import declarative_base
from sqlalchemy import Column, Integer, String, Text
from matrixone.sqlalchemy_ext import create_vector_column

# Create client and connect
client = Client()
client.connect(database='demo')

# Define model using MatrixOne ORM
Base = declarative_base()

class Article(Base):
    __tablename__ = 'articles'
    id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True, autoincrement=True)
    title = Column(String(200), nullable=False)
    content = Column(Text, nullable=False)
    embedding = create_vector_column(8, "f32")

# Create table using client API
client.create_table(Article)

# Insert some data using client API
articles = [
    {'title': 'Machine Learning Guide',
     'content': 'Comprehensive machine learning tutorial...',
     'embedding': [0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.15, 0.25, 0.35, 0.12, 0.22]},
    {'title': 'Python Programming',
     'content': 'Learn Python programming basics',
     'embedding': [0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.25, 0.35, 0.45, 0.22, 0.32]},
]
client.batch_insert(Article, articles)

client.vector_ops.create_ivf(
    Article,
    name='idx_embedding',
    column='embedding',
    lists=100,
    op_type='vector_l2_ops'
)

query_vector = [0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.25, 0.35, 0.45, 0.22, 0.32]
results = client.query(
    Article.title,
    Article.content,
    Article.embedding.l2_distance(query_vector).label("distance"),
).filter(Article.embedding.l2_distance(query_vector) < 0.1).execute()
for row in results.rows:
    print(f"Title: {row[0]}, Content: {row[1][:50]}...")

# Cleanup
client.drop_table(Article)  # Use client API
client.disconnect()

Fulltext Search:

...
from matrixone.sqlalchemy_ext import boolean_match

# Create fulltext index using SDK 
client.fulltext_index.create(
    Article,name='ftidx_content',columns=['title', 'content']
)

# Boolean search with must/should operators
results = client.query(
    Article.title,
    Article.content,
    boolean_match('title', 'content')
        .must('machine')
        .must('learning')
        .must_not('basics')
).execute()

# Results is a ResultSet object
for row in results.rows:
    print(f"Title: {row[0]}, Content: {row[1][:50]}...")
...

That's it! 🎉 You're now running a production-ready database with Git-like snapshots, vector search, and full ACID compliance.

MatrixOne supports multiple installation methods. Choose the one that best fits your needs:

Run a complete distributed cluster locally with multiple CN nodes, load balancing, and easy configuration management.

# Quick start
make dev-build && make dev-up

# Connect via proxy (load balanced)
mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -P 6001 -u root -p111

# Configure specific service (interactive editor)
make dev-edit-cn1          # Edit CN1 config
make dev-restart-cn1       # Restart only CN1 (fast!)
