Secondary indexesyesyes infotable attribute 'grouped'yesyes infoNebula Graph internally uses the Key-Value store RocksDB for persistency. The vertices, edges, and their properties are stored as Key while their values are stored as Value. The primary indexes are per Key and secondary indexes are per Value.No Indexes Required. Different internal optimization strategy, but same functionality included.
