Edgesi
Edgesi is a term encountered in discussions of graph databases and knowledge graphs to describe an edge-centric indexing approach. It denotes a family of techniques and data structures that place emphasis on storing edges together with their semantic annotations—such as labels, directions, weights, and metadata—in order to accelerate queries that traverse or pattern-match across edges.
The term is a portmanteau of edge and semantics or indexing, and it appears in theoretical treatments
Core concepts commonly associated with edgesi include edge-oriented storage layouts, label-aware adjacency structures, and compressed representations
Applications for edgesi concepts span social networks, recommendation systems, transportation and logistics networks, and biological or
