Howdy, is anyone in here using the Cosmos DB Graph API and Gremlin queries in a non-trivial way? I ask because I'm really keen on the technology, but most of the articles I find on the subject are repeated kiddie's tutorials, and there is no discussion of how to use it in anger from a .NET developer's perspective.
As an exercise several months ago I converted my personal "collections" data (music, videos, books, genres, authors, etc) into a graph of about 40K nodes and found the results to be natural and elegant. I had to write some custom code to serialize POCOs to-and-from raw vertexes, but pleasingly the core code to do so is barely 100 lines. I feel like I'm sitting on a gold mine with the Cosmos Graph API, but no one seems to be mining it. My main problem is trying to understand the Gremlin language at the TinkerPop documentation pages <http://tinkerpop.apache.org/docs/3.4.1/reference/>. I think it was written by someone who's first language isn't human. So I'm hoping someone here is a Gremlin/Graph boffin and can perhaps help me write some queries that have me stumped. In the meantime I'll keep trying to digest the samples and docs, and maybe there's a forum (I forgot to look). *Greg K*
