Distributed Graph Computing with Gremlin by Marko A. Rodriguez.
From the post:
The
script-step in Faunus’ Gremlin allows for the arbitrary execution of a Gremlin script against all vertices in the Faunus graph. This simple idea has interesting ramifications for Gremlin-based distributed graph computing. For instance, it is possible evaluate a Gremlin script on every vertex in the source graph (e.g. Titan) in parallel while maintaining data/process locality. This section will discuss the following two use cases.
- Global graph mutations: parallel update vertices/edges in a Titan cluster given some arbitrary computation.
- Global graph algorithms: propagate information to arbitrary depths in a Titan cluster in order to compute some algorithm in a parallel fashion.
Another must read post from Marko A. Rodriguez!
Also a reminder that I need to pull out my Oxford Classical Dictionary to add some material to the mythology graph.
