InfiniteGraph is a distributed graph database implemented in Java and C++ and is from a class of NOSQL ("Not Only SQL") database technologies that focus on graph data structures. Developers use InfiniteGraph to find useful and often hidden relationships in highly connected, complex big data sets.{{Cite web |url=http://www.dbta.com/Editorial/Think-About-It/DBTA-100-The-Companies-That-Matter-Most-in-Data-89876.aspx |title=DBTA 100: The Companies That Matter Most in Data |last=Joyce Wells |date=June 26, 2013 |publisher=Database Trends and Applications |access-date=September 8, 2014}}{{Cite web |url=http://readwrite.com/2011/08/24/the-other-non-sql-alternative |title=The Other Non-SQL Alternative |last=Scott M.

InfiniteGraph can easily and efficiently perform queries that are difficult to perform, such as finding all paths or the shortest path between two items. InfiniteGraph is suited for applications and services that solve graph problems in operational environments. InfiniteGraphs "DO" query language enables both value-based queries and complex graph queries. InfiniteGraph goes beyond graph databases to also support complex object queries.
Adoption is seen in federal government, telecommunications, healthcare, cybersecurity, manufacturing, finance, and networking applications.{{Cite web |url=https://infinitegraph.com/use-cases/|title=Graph Database Use Cases|date=October 15, 2021 |publisher=Objectivity, Inc. |access-date=October 15, 2021}}
