I would most-definitely like to see the Single predicate sharded across groups solved in 2020.

Also, an idea for a TBD feature - I’d like to see support towards general graph algorithms, such as Similarity, Centrality (Who’s the center of a network given a set of nodes), and Paths (Shortest path between two people). I find this is one gaping hole when comparing DGraph to Neo4j.

Thanks for the consideration!

That won’t make the 2020 cut. But, we would most likely plan to work on it in 2021.

Which one, the predicate sharding, or the algorithms?

Thanks

I was talking about the predicate across groups.

For graph algorithms, we already have shortest path. Similarity and Centrality and such – we don’t have any plans to add those. They can be built on top of Dgraph.

Thanks for the update!
