ArangoDB-DGL Adapter

The ArangoDB-DGL Adapter exports Graphs from ArangoDB, the multi-model database for graph & beyond, into Deep Graph Library (DGL), a python package for graph neural networks, and vice-versa.

Note: The ArangoDB-DGL Adapter currently only supports the use of PyTorch as the DGL backend. Support for MXNet and Tensorflow will be added in the future.

About DGL

The Deep Graph Library (DGL) is an easy-to-use, high performance and scalable Python package for deep learning on graphs. DGL is framework agnostic, meaning if a deep graph model is a component of an end-to-end application, the rest of the logics can be implemented in any major frameworks, such as PyTorch, Apache MXNet or TensorFlow.
