    <p>I'm starting to dig into graph databases, but i have no idea, how these graphs are stored internally. Let's say i have this graph (taken from <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_database" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Wikipedia</a>):</p> <p><img src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/3a/GraphDatabase_PropertyGraph.png" width="450" height="300" /></p> <p><strong>How do i serialize this graph as a key-value object?</strong> (a Python dict, for example)</p> <p>I imagine two dicts, one for vertices and one for edges:</p> <pre class="lang-python prettyprint-override"><code>{'vertices': {'1': {'Name': 'Alice', 'Age': 18}, '2': {'Name': 'Bob', 'Age': 22}, '3': {'Type': 'Group', 'Name': 'Chess'}}, 'edges': {'100': {'Label': 'knows', 'Since': '2001/10/03'}, '101': {'Label': 'knows', 'Since': '2001/10/04'}, '102': {'Label': 'is_member', 'Since': '2005/7/01'}, '103': {'Label': 'Members'}, '104': {'Label': 'Members'}, '105': {'Label': 'is_member', 'Since': '2011/02/14'}}, 'connections': [['1', '2', '100'], ['2', '1', '101'], ['1', '3', '102'], ['3', '1', '103'], ['3', '2', '104'], ['2', '3', '105']]} </code></pre> <p>But i'm not sure, whether this is the most practical implementation. Maybe the "connections" should be inside "vertices" dict. So, what is the best way to implement graph datastore using key-value objects? What and where can i read more about it?</p> <p>Possibly related, but not a duplicate: <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/q/6376586/596361">How to represent a strange graph in some data structure</a></p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
