Venkatesh Seetharam commented on FALCON-288:
--------------------------------------------
We need to discuss 2 things:
* persistent store - rdbms vs a graph db
* object model based on the store we choose
I tried to model in both and the queries for getting a graph for a single
execution with multiple instances for an input involved several inner joins.
However, its quite straightforward in graphs.
Currently, I have each entity as a vertex with name and type as indexed
properties. Each instance for a given entity is also a vertex with edges to the
entity and the instances it uses or generates with name as the indexed property
along with user and timestamp.
Thoughts?
