grakn VS Standard

TypeDB : A Strongly-typed Database

How does it compare to, say grakn (renamed https://vaticle.com/, I think?), or draph (https://dgraph.io/), or Ontotext's GraphDB (https://www.ontotext.com/products/graphdb/), or Datomic?

Edge database looks pretty freakin awesome. It basically seems to re-write SQL and Graph databases together to create some new-ish programming language. It takes care of all the problems GraphQL has, and seems to be built separately but on top of postgres. It is really something unique, beautiful, and powerful. They don't have a security layer yet or a cloud hosting environment, but both are in the works. However, postgres still suffers from the scalable problems we all know. If you like unique fetching and strong typing, also check out TypeDB. It doesn't make its own list number because there is not cloud version, middleware, etc. However, worth checking out.

If you find yourself limited by triplestores, there's also a new growing area of development in knowledge engines, which allow edges-of-edges, entailed relations, hypergraph relations, and more of the power you'd get from full logic programming. TypeDB (recently renamed from Grakn) is an example of that type of database.

In the story to follow, David presents how his team at Roche was able to identify potential novel targets that were not identified by Open Targets as highly ranked. This was made possible with TypeDB, which his team used to store the relevant data and then find underlying biological evidence for those new targets.

grakn.ai : The Database for AI

Give the open-source Grakn a look as well (full transparency: I work there), it is an abstraction over a built in-house hypergraph storage engine and persisted layer using RocksDB. It's a logical database with a reasoning engine at the database level. https://github.com/graknlabs/grakn

I picked up standard[1] a while back for this reason, I don't want to have to think about it. It works fine, I have no complaints (took me a while to get used to not using semi-colons but now I prefer it) Same reason I use `cargo fmt` as well.

For example, if you use https://standardjs.com/ - it will error on your second code snippet and if you ask it for an autofix - it will transfer the minus sign to the first line.

In comparison, JavaScript doesn't have a strict coding standard, although it does have widely accepted code style guides like the Airbnb JavaScript Style Guide and the JavaScript Standard Style. These guides provide recommendations for code formatting and naming conventions, but they are not as strictly enforced as the Java coding standard.
