Tinkerpop Gremlin Support? #1386

Closed th5 closed 1 month ago

th5 commented 1 year ago

Kùzu looks like a great match for the Gremlin graph query language. We use it to express graph algorithms and queries on knowledge graphs.

Is there interest in supporting Gremlin/Tinkerpop?

Hi Tom,

I do realize that Gremlin has its own community but I was never a fan of Gremlin as a standard API/language to interact with GDBMSs. That said, I do find value in extending our API to incrementally construct queries similar to how one constructs queries in Gremlin and akin to the "Relational API" in DuckDB. We have discussed implementing this at some point but not in our immediate Phase 2 roadmap.

I am actually quite interested in understanding what you do with knowledge graphs and how (e.g., why you picked Gremlin to develop your algorithms). I could't find a link to your email or LinkedIn to ask you this separately but If you have some time and would like to meet with me/us, I'd be happy to set up a time to chat. You can contact me directly through email (which is in on my website) or better by joining the Kuzu slack.

Best,

Semih
