Hi Rafa,

Apache TinkerPop is still fully supported, there is a specific OrientDB
distribution that includes a Gremlin server and all the TP APIs.

The Muti-Model API in v3.0 is a logical step in the direction of making
OrientDB API as simple and complete as possible; in previous versions there
was no way to manipulate documents and graphs in a consistent manner with a
single API, TinkerPop 2.6 did not have natural Document capabilities and
the ODatabase API did not have graph concepts, it was definitely not a nice
situation for the end-user usability.

If you are connecting to OrientDB directly, I'd suggest to use the
Multi-Model API, that is more optimised and complete.

If you need to use TinkerPop API for some reason (eg. because you need
compliance to standards) then I'd suggest to connect to the Gremlin server
directly, this will guarantee that you are really using it in a standard way

Thanks

Luigi
