HackerNoon readers have voted FalkorDB the Startup of the Year 2024 for Tel Aviv. The open-source property-graph database outscored more than 14k Israeli ventures on community impact, technical progress, and real-world traction.

Over the past twelve months, the FalkorDB engineering team shipped sparse-matrix storage, AVX-powered query execution, and multi-tenant clustering—all while holding a sub-10 ms P99 on graphs with billions of relationships. Developers adopted these releases to drive fraud analytics, security posture mapping, and knowledge-graph retrieval pipelines without rewriting application logic.

“Query shape and tail-latency decide production fate,” said Guy Korland, CEO. “Our benchmark-first roadmap keeps that bar visible and forces every pull-request to move it.”

HackerNoon’s annual awards draw 400 k+ developer votes across 4,000 cities, rewarding projects that ship code, share knowledge, and earn peer trust. Previous regional winners include PostHog, Supabase, and Temporal.
