Helix Cloud stores data as a labeled property graph. The graph consists of nodes and directed edges, each carrying typed properties.

Nodes and Edges

Nodes and edges are identified by 64-bit unsigned IDs. Edges are directed: each edge has a source node and a target node. Labels are stored as the reserved $label property and are used for type-based filtering and label-scoped secondary, vector, and text indexes. Properties are strongly typed. Supported types: boolean, integer, floating-point, string, bytes, and array variants of each.

Multigraph

Multiple edges between the same pair of nodes are supported. Each edge has a unique ID. The pair (from, to) maps to the set of all edge IDs connecting those nodes. This allows modeling relationships like “user A sent message B to user C” and “user A sent message D to user C” as distinct edges with distinct properties. For how this data is filtered and searched, see Indexing. For how it is read and mutated, see Querying.
