General Titan Benefits -* Support for "infinite" sized graphs via the addition of machines to the cluster. -* Native support for the popular property graph data model exposed by Blueprints. -* Native support for the graph traversal language Gremlin. -* Numerous graph-level configurations provide knobs for tuning performance. -* Micro-indices facilitate intelligent vertex-level querying to alleviate issues with the infamous super node problem. -* Provides an optimized disk representation to allow for efficient use of storage and speed of access. -* Data replication amongst the cluster ensures data is protected during machine failures. -* Support for top-down, user prescribed graph partitioning algorithms. - -h2. Benefits of Titan on Cassandra - -!http://cassandra.apache.org/media/img/cassandra_logo.png!:http://cassandra.apache.org/ - -* Continuously available with no single point of failure. -* No read/write bottlenecks to the graph as there is no master/slave architecture. -* Elastic scalability allows for the introduction and removal of machines. -* Caching layer ensures that continuously accessed data is available in memory. -* Increase the size of the cache by adding more machines to the cluster. - -h2.
