Gaffer Graph Database...

Hi,

So this has been around for some time:

	https://github.com/gchq/Gaffer <https://github.com/gchq/Gaffer>

At some point I added an Issue to their repo that has since been closed:

	https://github.com/gchq/Gaffer/issues/11 <https://github.com/gchq/Gaffer/issues/11>

You can see how awkward their query interface is:

	https://github.com/gchq/Gaffer/wiki/Getting-Started <https://github.com/gchq/Gaffer/wiki/Getting-Started>

They would be much better served by TinkerPop. 

Anyone interested in making Gaffer TinkerPop-compliant? Note that they are an Apache2.0 licensed project.

Thanks,
Marko.

Huh. And that user is a GCHQ organization member.

Yea, thats weird. Just bind it to the Java API ?!… seems it would be a 3-day exercise.

Marko.

that was closed, but i noticed this morning that this was open:

https://github.com/gchq/Gaffer/issues/277

not sure why they would look to do TinkerPop over REST - we know the
structure API doesn't work so well over that model.
