Fundamentals
Description A PostgreSQL extension that exposes graph algorithms as plain SQL functions. Each function takes arrays of source and target node ids and returns a table, covering PageRank, betweenness, closeness and eigenvector centrality, strongly and weakly connected components, Louvain community detection, Dijkstra, topological sort and cycle detection.A polymorphic database that natively models inheritance hierarchies, dependencies, and conceptual schemas using its TypeQL query language. Supports clustering for scalability and a cloud-agnostic deployment model.
