Ask HN: If you've used a graph database, would you use it again?

A team I've been working with for years has had a lot of success with Blazegraph: https://www.blazegraph.com/ -- the marketing materials call it "ultra-scalable," and that actually turns out to be true. I haven't seen too many cases where specific queries will cause serious performance with the system.

That said, we've done some work to prevent runaway queries (e.g. strict query timeouts, downstream systems that handle that situation gracefully).

I believe BlazeGraph is the basis for Amazon Neptune, the graph DB AWS announced at ReInvent last year. https://aws.amazon.com/neptune/

That's great! I've had a chance to talk to some of the engineering and management folks at BlazeGraph over the years, and they're a really solid group. It's really nice to hear about a deserving team get success.
