Adjacency list based graph client built on DynamoDB

go-dynamo-graph-client

A golang client using dynamo db as an (Adjacency List)[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adjacency_list] graph

Motivation

When working with Neptune, for high volume but shallow relationships the idea to use an Adjacency List and dynamodb seemed like a much better approach and would not run into the same level of write conflicts from Neptune. When the number of hops in a given search is low, dynamodb's low latency can make this viable.

Running Locally

Current version only works against local tables

make local-up

Uses docker-compose to standup a persistent dynamodb instance on localhost:8000

go run ./cmd/dynamo/main.go init
go run ./cmd/dynamo/main.go load ./example/basic.csv

init creates the table on the local instance
load loads the table with the csv file raw data into the db

To scan through the local table

go run ./cmd/dynamo/main.go read
