DescriptionAll data is stored inside objects which are linked by so-called link attributes. Objects consist of classes which can be extended and de-extended at runtime. Graphs can be defined with a struct.Time Series DBMS built at Spotify based on Cassandra or Google Cloud Bigtable, and ElasticSearchA lightweight, in-memory graph engine that serves as a reference implementation of the TinkerPop3 APITypeDB provides developers with an expressive, customizable type system to manage their data using an award-winning query language, TypeQL, while building on a high-performance, distributed architecture.
