Thread: PostgreSQL extension for processing Graph queries (Apache AGE)
Hello PostgreSQL users,
Apache AGE is an Apache 2-licensed open source PostgreSQL extension for storing Graph data.
The current version of Apache AGE is to enable PostgreSQL users to use Neo4j's openCypher-based graph queries in unison with existing relational tables
Any idea or suggestion to make AGE better would be much appreciated.
Thank you,
AK

Hello Alvaro,
With AGE running on PostgreSQL, you can store and query Graph data (in JSON document) using openCypher based graph queries, Graph data is a set of nodes (objects / entities / records) and edges (relationships between nodes).
You can also run some Graph algorithms on these data such as Clustering, Partitioning, Search, Shortest Path and Page Rank.
E.g. The Shortest Path algorithm is used to derive the fastest path connecting one node to another. It is used for social network analysis, logistic distribution path design, manufacturing process design, etc.

Can you show some examples of this feature in action? What sort of data
would I use it for, how would I query it?
