Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for global column indexing in a graph database are disclosed. A plurality of data elements of a graph database are stored. The triples comprise identifiers, column names, and values. The column names are globally scoped in the graph database and are associated with data types. Indices corresponding to the column names are created. A particular one of the indices comprises one or more of the values associated with the corresponding column name. A query is performed on the graph database using one or more of the indices corresponding to one of more of the column names associated with the query.
