[jira] [Created] (SPARK-7256) Add Graph abstraction which uses DataFrame

Joseph K. Bradley created SPARK-7256:
----------------------------------------

             Summary: Add Graph abstraction which uses DataFrame
                 Key: SPARK-7256
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-7256
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: GraphX, SQL
            Reporter: Joseph K. Bradley
            Priority: Critical


RDD is to DataFrame as Graph is to ??? (this JIRA).

It would be very useful long-term to have a Graph type which uses 2 DataFrames instead of 2 RDDs.

The immediate benefit I have in mind is taking advantage of Spark SQL datasources and storage formats.

This could also be an opportunity to make an API which is more Java- and Python-friendly.
