When you say nested documents, do you mean like a map or set of embedded or linked documents?
You can use all the same types in a vertex as you can with a document. Just think of an OrientVertex as a hybrid of a node and a document. Just stick with the Vertex and create edges for it while setting its properties like a document. -Colin Orient Technologies The Company behind OrientDB On Monday, March 23, 2015 at 10:27:04 AM UTC-5, Aris Alexis wrote: > > Hi.
