Large Graph Loading Best Practices: Strategies (Part 1)

DSE Graph is a unique graph database that combines scalability, replication, fault tolerance, and real-time operational capabilities. It differentiates itself from other graph databases by leveraging the strengths of DataStax Enterprise and Apache Cassandra's storage engine. The key aspects that set it apart are its positioning on the right side of the chart where relationships are most valuable, and towards the top due to its scalability. DSE Graph is designed for handling large graphs with custom IDs, allowing developers to take graph partitioning into their own hands. It supports single cardinality edges (thereby idempotent) which can be created using the "single()" keyword in DSE Graph.
