Graph Analytics with Gradoop

Gradoop is designed around the so-called Extended Property Graph Model (EPGM) supporting heterogeneous, schema-free graph data. In this model, a database consists of multiple property graphs which we call logical graphs. The EPGM provides analytical operators for both single graphs as well as collections of graphs. Operators may also return single graphs or graph collections thus enabling the definition of analytical programs. Additionally, Gradoop integrates Flink Gelly which enables the application of arbitrary graph algorithms on an EPGM database.

Bio
