Abstract
A processing device generates an index node for an attribute in a graph database, wherein the index node is linked to a second node by a first edge having a first edge type. The processing device determines a first plurality of additional nodes that have the attribute. For each node of the first plurality of additional nodes, the processing device generates an edge linking the node to the index node, wherein the edge comprises a second edge type.
