sqlg
A TinkerPop 3 implementation that enables graph database operations on top of standard SQL relational databases.
What is sqlg?
Sqlg is a Java library that implements the Apache TinkerPop 3 graph computing framework on top of standard SQL relational databases. It allows developers to use graph data models and execute Gremlin queries while storing data in traditional RDBMS like PostgreSQL, MySQL, and MariaDB. This solves the problem of needing to choose between graph database functionality and the reliability/familiarity of SQL databases.
Java developers and data engineers who need graph database capabilities but want to leverage existing SQL database infrastructure, particularly those using PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, H2, or HSQLDB.
Developers choose Sqlg because it provides full TinkerPop 3 compliance without requiring migration to specialized graph databases, allowing them to maintain ACID compliance, use existing SQL tools, and deploy on familiar RDBMS platforms while gaining graph query capabilities.
