Graph databases are increasingly popular in modern applications because they can model complex relationships natively. Graphs provide a more natural representation of connected data from recommendation systems to fraud detection. Our previous articles explored graph databases broadly and delved into Neo4j. In this third part, we focus on JanusGraph, a scalable and distributed graph database.
Unlike Neo4j, JanusGraph supports multiple backends and leverages Apache TinkerPop, a graph computing framework that introduces a standard API and query language (Gremlin) for various databases. This abstraction makes JanusGraph a flexible choice for enterprise applications.
