What Hacker News says

I actually found out about Neptune through finding out about Blazegraph. Do you know what's happening with the Blazegraph project now? Just followed your link and saw this comment from one of the original authors in Jan: https://github.com/blazegraph/database/issues/86#issuecommen... Since Amazon is effectively selling machine time to run Neptune with no cost for the db, wouldn't it be excellent if the original author and team continued to contribute to Blazegraph. I'm not sure if the linked note is a potential nod in that direction or not. (We have customers that also want to have on-prem deployments, which you obviously can't do with Neptune)
In Why Google needed to build a graph serving system
I've been looking for an open source graph nosql style database that makes it easy to do gather-scatter on a GPU. It's been tough. Plug: some people are working to fork/restart Blazegraph development, which is the database Amazon took to make Neptune. Its GPU features are missing, as they were originally kept proprietary. If you have any interest and know how, this could be an exciting project to contribute to! https://github.com/blazegraph/database/issues/86
