Property Graphs

What is a Property Graph?

A property graph is a graph data structure that consists of nodes, edges, and properties. Each node represents an entity or object, each edge represents a relationship between entities, and each property represents a characteristic of an entity or a relationship. The model is used in graph databases to represent and store data in a highly flexible and scalable manner. Since they can represent any kind of data and relationships, they can be used to model a wide variety of scenarios. In addition, property graphs can handle large amounts of data and scale horizontally across multiple machines, making them suitable for big data applications....

What is TALE ?

The main objective of this work is to design a technological stack, based on solid theoretical underpinning, around the property graph data model that can enable graph processing and analytics at scale. The overarching aims of this work is to capitalize expertise and technology that is developed for decades at FORTH for semantic graphs, such as those of graph databases, semantic web technologies, foundations of databases and data models, big data systems, as well as graph algorithms and techniques and to generate a whole new field of interest the scientific community focusing on Property Graphs...
