InfoGrid: The Web Graph Database
From the website:
InfoGrid is a Web Graph Database with a many additional software components that make the development of REST-ful web applications on a graph foundation easy.
This looks like a very good introduction to graph databases.
Questions:
- Suggest any other introductions to graph databases you think would be suitable for library school students.
- Of the tutorials on graph databases you found, what would you change or do differently?
- What examples would you find compelling as a library school student for graph databases?
Hi Patrick,
Thanks for collecting this. Very interesting stuff, and it shares a lot of the core foundational ideas behind the platform I’ve been working on as well.
Just another example of “there isn’t any such thing as a unique idea!” 🙂
Cheers,
ast

…of course, looking at the code examples, I wouldn’t trade APIs with them at all!
Interesting also that the copyright dates say 1998 and a) this post is the only one Google knows about that links InfoGrid and Topic Maps and b) I’d never heard of it until today.
Perhaps there were some missed opportunities there in a number of places!
