What is a Graph Database?

A graph database, or otherwise known as “graph-oriented database,” is a particular form of NoSQL database that makes use of a graph to query, house, and map out relationships. It consists of databases which specifically serve to store data structures that are graph-oriented.
A graph database is an example of a storage solution that shows where linked elements are
connected to each other in the absence of an index. Groups of a specific entity can be accessed by means of dereferencing a pointer.
There are various kinds of graphs that can be stored. They can range from a single undirected graph to property graphs to hyper-graphs.
