I think you're both missing the distinction I'm trying to make here. > JanusGraph is not remote-only.
JanusGraph in the mode offered on IBM Compose is remote only. https://help.compose.com/docs/janusgraph-connecting-to-janusgraph > I didn't think DSE Graph was remote-only either. DSEGraph is remote-only. When I write "remote-only" I mean that you can't embed an instance, nor can you host an instance in Gremlin Server yourself. You have no access to the classes that would enable that. I would say that you can only connect to these graphs over Gremlin Server protocols, but even that's not true. The only real definition here is that these graphs accept Gremlin (scripts and/or bytecode at this time) on requests and return results. I want a name for these types of graphs because they represent an interesting new type of graph that have a completely different model from what we've been used to and what our documentation looks like. As I write this a little more clearly now I wonder if "Gremlin Service Provider" is right. It sorta implies this cloud-based hosting or something and DSE Graph sits in the middle on that in a way. What do we call a graph that just accepts gremlin remotely and returns results. "Remote Graph Systems"? "Remote Gremlin Graphs"? maybe it needs "remote" in it..... Does this make more sense now? thoughts? > I'm also for naming normalization across the TinkerPop. Here are some other names out there: hmm - yeah...we could probably do better with that. perhaps a different discussion.....
