TigerGraph Savanna Overview
TigerGraph Savanna is a groundbreaking cloud-native platform that revolutionizes graph analytics. Unlike traditional deployments, Savanna is designed from the ground up to leverage modern cloud architecture.
1. Key Innovation: Decoupled Architecture
Savanna's defining feature is the separation of compute and storage. This allows you to:
- Scale Compute Independently: Spin up powerful clusters for complex queries and smaller ones for light tasks, all pointing to the same data.
- Pay-as-you-Go: Pay only for the compute you use while storage remains persistent and durable.
- Multi-Workspace Access: Multiple "Workspaces" can connect to a single "Database" simultaneously.
2. Integrated Graph Experience
Savanna provides a unified, modern web interface that combines:
- Schema Designer: Drag-and-drop schema creation.
- GSQL Editor: A powerful IDE for writing and sharing queries.
- Explore Graph: Visual data navigation and pattern searching.
- AI CoPilot: Integrated AI tools to help draft schemas and queries.
3. Platform Availability
Savanna is currently optimized for Amazon Web Services (AWS), with Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud Platform (GCP) support in active development.
[!TIP] Use Savanna if you need a "serverless-style" experience where you can pause compute completely without losing your graph state.
