Kafka Graph Streaming Pipeline with AllegroGraph
AllegroGraph is used very often as an Entity Event Knowledge Graph platform. Our customers use the entity-event approach in diverse settings like a call center, a hospital, in insurance, in aviation and even in finance. AllegroGraph as an entity-event knowledge graph will accept incoming events, do instant queries and analytics on the new data and then store events and results. AllegroGraph is geared to high speed inserts so in general can keep up with high business loads but for several reasons it is advantageous to couple AllegroGraph with Apache Kafka. Apache Kafka is an open-source distributed event streaming platform used by thousands of companies for high-performance data pipelines, streaming analytics, data integration, and mission-critical applications.
Gruff v9 – Now Available!
New Features Include:
By augmenting Knowledge Graphs with visualizations, users can determine insights that would otherwise elude them. Gruff’s dynamic data visualizations increase users’ understanding of data by instantly illustrating relevant relationships, hidden patterns and data’s significance to outcomes. Gruff also helps make data actionable by displaying it in a way that decision-makers can see the significance of data relative to a business problem or solution.
Gruff enables users to create visual knowledge graphs that display data relationships in views that are driven by the user. Ad hoc and exploratory analysis can be performed by simply clicking on different graph nodes to answer questions. Gruff’s unique ‘Time Machine’ feature provides the capability to explore temporal context and connections within data. The visual query builder within Gruff empowers both novice and expert users to create simple to highly complex queries without writing any code
- Now Browser Based
- Graphical View with new “Time Machine” feature – See the shape and density of graph data evolve over time
- Tabular view – Understand objects as a whole
- Outline view – Explore the often hierarchical nature of graphs
- Query view – Write Prolog or SPARQL queries
- Graphical Query Builder – Create queries visually via drag and drop

Bloor Research Positions AllegroGraph as a “Champion”.
A graph database is one that stores data in terms of entities and the relationships between entities. A variant on this theme are RDF (resource description framework) databases which store data in the format subject-predicate-object, which is known as a triple.
Both graph and RDF databases may be native products or they may be built on top of other database types. Most commonly, other database types are forms of NoSQL database though there are some relational implementations.
