Postgres as a Graph Database: (Ab)Using PgRouting
Build production-grade applications with a Postgres database, Authentication, instant APIs, Realtime, Functions, Storage and Vector embeddings. Start for free.
You can use it to calculate the shortest path, perform network analysis, and solve complex routing problems on a graph-based structure. For example, in a cloud infrastructure, pgRouting could help determine how to allocate compute tasks across a set of distributed servers by finding the shortest or least-congested path to route data. In recommendation engines or search algorithms that use knowledge graphs, pgRouting can be used to build relationships between entities and events.
