[jira] [Created] (TINKERPOP-2002) Create a blog post explaining the value of using TinkerPop

Jeremy Hanna created TINKERPOP-2002:
---------------------------------------

             Summary: Create a blog post explaining the value of using TinkerPop
                 Key: TINKERPOP-2002
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-2002
             Project: TinkerPop
          Issue Type: Wish
          Components: documentation
            Reporter: Jeremy Hanna


There are a lot of great references and recipes in the TinkerPop docs. One thing that would be nice to have is a simple explanation of what it means to use a TinkerPop implementation and what that guarantees. People coming from a relational world may misunderstand what to expect and might think they can do the equivalent of plugging in a new JDBC driver and away they go.

Some things to include
 * How traversals are implementation agnostic with some caveats
 ** data types
 ** indexes
 * Connection options - different implementations may allow you to use TinkerPop drivers but may have implementation specific drivers for things like security or cluster awareness
 * How to migrate easily between TinkerPop implementations should the need arise
