Description

I am a long-term user of Dgraph and truly appreciate its capabilities as a distributed graph database.

I would like to inquire whether there are any plans or thoughts in your current roadmap regarding the support for built-in graph algorithms (such as PageRank, ArticleRank, Community Detection, etc.).

I would love to hear your perspective on this or if there are any recommended best practices for handling graph analytics at scale with Dgraph.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or implementation entry point. Start by reviewing Dgraph’s roadmap and existing graph-analytics capabilities, then determine whether native PageRank, ArticleRank, or community detection is planned and what supported practices exist for analytics at scale; done is a clear maintainer response.
