Slides: https://www.slideshare.net/DataStax/datastax-graph-computing-with-apache-tinkerpop-marko-rodriguez-cassandra-summit-2016 | Apache TinkerPop serves as an Apache governed, vendor-agnostic, open source initiative providing a standard interface and query language for both OLTP- and OLAP-based graph systems. This presentation will outline the means by which vendors implement TinkerPop and then, in turn, how the Gremlin graph traversal language is able to process the vendor's underlying graph structure. The material will be presented from the perspective of the DSEGraph team's use of Apache TinkerPop in enabling graph computing features for DataStax Enterprise customers. About the Speaker Marko Rodriguez Director of Engineering, DataStax Dr. Marko A. Rodriguez is the co-founder of Apache TinkerPop and creator of the Gremlin graph traversal language. Gremlin is leveraged by numerous graph system vendors including DataStax's DSEGraph. Currently, Marko is a Director of Engineering at DataStax focusing his time and effort on graphs in general and Apache TinkerPop in particular.
