System and method for creating, deploying, integrating, and distributing nodes in a grid of distributed graph databases

摘要

In a computer environment, a system and method is described that generally provides for creation of a distributed graph database, creation and deployment of nodes in a distributed graph database system, and integration of nodes into a set of distributed graph databases that include data nodes and edges that are: entities built using forms, relations, and relationships; immutable but evolvable through the addition of new data nodes or new edges joining the evolving data node to another data node; shareable and mergeable.

1. A computer-based network system comprising:
a plurality of graph database nodes so that any subset of information contained in any of the plurality of graph database nodes is shareable with any other graph database node in the network system using a merge operation, wherein
the plurality of graph database nodes comprises at least two data nodes and at least one edge linking the at least two data nodes,the subset of information also comprises at least one data node,the at least one data node contains immutable data so that the at least one data node is evolvable through the addition of at least one new edge that is also a data node, and the at least one new edge links at least one data node to at least one other data node so that the integrity of the at least one data node, the at least one other data node, and the at least one edge is maintainable during sharing and merging of the subset of information throughout the plurality of graph database nodes,whereby the any of the plurality of graph database nodes data nodes and the any other graph database node is at least partially synchronizable; and at least one computer processor for performing at least the merge operation.
