Bitsy is a embeddable in-memory graph database that is compatible with Tinkerpop3. It is based on these design principles: "No seek" (avoid disk seeks to maximize write throughput), "No socket" (embed within the application to reduce network/OS delays) and "No SQL" (leverage graph traversals for faster queries).
