The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) has published GQL, a new database language standard designed specifically for property graphs. This milestone is significant as it marks the first new ISO database language since the introduction of SQL in 1987. GQL, or Graph Query Language, aims to provide a standardized way for users to interact with graph databases, making it easier for companies like Neo4j and Amazon to develop and use graph technologies. The standard has been developed concurrently with Cypher, a popular query language used by Neo4j, and the two languages share many similarities. While some differences exist between GQL and Cypher, the ISO standard provides a foundation for vendors to implement GQL in their products, while also supporting Cypher as an existing implementation of the new standard. This transition is expected to be seamless, with support for both languages available, allowing users to continue using their investments while benefiting from the power of the new standard. The publication of GQL has been eagerly anticipated by the graph community and marks a significant step forward in the development of graph databases.
