What is the difference between Memgraph Docker images?

I can see that Memgraph has a couple of Docker images available on the Docker Hub. There is: memgraph-platform, memgraph-mage and memgraph image. What is the difference between those three?

Depending on the image you install you get various products:

  • If you run memgraph image you will install MemgraphDB and mgconsole (command-line interface for running queries)
  • If you run memgraph-mage image you will install MemgraphDB, mgconsole and MAGE (library with advanced graph algorithms)
  • If you run memgraph-platform image you will install MemgraphDB, MAGE, mgconsole and Memgraph Lab (visual user interface for running queries and visualizing graph data)

Keep in mind that if you installed memgraph-platform, mgconsole will start automatically when you run the container. If you have installed memgraph or memgraph-mageimages mgconsole will not start automatically. You will need to run it using the command docker run -it --entrypoint=mgconsole memgraph --host CONTAINER_IP. You can find more details in the official documentation.

So run the image depending on what products you need. If you are not sure Memgraph Platform is always a good choice because you'll get the complete solution.
