Abstract
Graph queries are processed using a plurality of independent query execution engines. A graph query submitted to a graph database which is modeled by an attributed graph is received. The graph query is decomposed into a plurality of query components. For each of the query components, a one of the query execution engines that is available to process the query component is identified, a sub-query representing the query component is generated, the sub-query is sent to the identified query execution engine for processing, and results for the sub-query are received from the identified query execution engine. The results received are then combined to generate a response to the graph query.
