There’s at least one German-Bulgarian company called Plan-Vision that implemented such graph-relational approach like 15 years ago. their VSQL is similarly working on the E/R conceptual level and gets translated (or compiled into) to the underlying Postgresql or Oracle. You also get a neat EcmaScript like language that works with the collections in a graph like manner.

Long before Arango, Orient etc.

The company is absolutely nowhere near to you guys in terms of marketing, but their thing works with more than 40 enterprise clients so far.

So you definitely did not ‘just’ invent the concept. A lot of companies approach the problem one way or another…



He said they invented the term, not the concept. I don't know if that is accurate either, but your missquote makes for a huge difference.
