Abstract

Technology is disclosed for programmatically parallelizing distributed graph queries of a graph metaphor of distributed data sources through various applications or platforms. Query candidates corresponding to distributed data sources are determined by applying a graph query to a graph metaphor of the distributed data sources. A set of query steps representing a set of distributed queries of the query candidates are determined based on corresponding properties of the query candidates from the graph metaphor. The set of query steps are executed in parallel in order to determine a response to the graph query. The data is provided in response to the graph query.
