Isn't xquery basically a graph query language similar to GraphQL? If so, why are we not using xquery to query objects and sub-objects?

- lmkg 7y agoI'm not familiar with xquery, does it handle general graphs or only DAGs? Your mention of "objects and sub-objects" makes me think you're expecting a different use-case than actual graph databases, which deals more with peer-to-peer connections (like knowledge graphs) than hierarchical models.
- namedgraph 7y agoXQuery is for the XML data model, which is a tree and not a graph.
