NoSQL database that uses graph theory to store, map and query
relationships. It is basically a collection of nodes and edges.

Scheme
A graph database is a database that uses graph
structures for semantic queries with nodes, edges and properties
to represent and store data. A key concept of the system is
the graph (or edge or relationship), which directly relates data
items in the store. The relationships allow data in the store to be
linked together directly, and in many cases retrieved with one
operation.
