well the application I am developing is Collaboration support tool. You have a bunch of concepts (organization, project, collaboration activities, events, etc). Some of these concepts are connected. So, I could have modeled them with a Relational DB. But I really wanted to take advantage of Riak's distributed nature. So I decided to use links to model the connection between the concepts. Now transitioning to Riak 2.0 is a bit of a problem to me. Since I need to change the design of my DB and remove links and their walking. I have been considering moving the links to a graph DB like Neo4j or even redesign the links as additional attributes in the concepts themselves. None of these seems like a clean solution to me. If I could have pointers about new ways of designing connections or links in risk 2.0 without using link walking that'd be cool. Any help? José
