Gremlin/TinkerPop on MongoDB

[Abhilash Somasamudramath]

Dear Gremlin Community,

MongoDB has long focused on offering the document model data store, which as is could potentially be used to store graphical data, although not natively. I've constantly been pondering over how users of MongoDB currently build graph databases on Mongo using the document model? Are there any non-TinkerPop workaround for storing graphs on Mongo or does anyone interested just choose another database that supports Gremlin instead?

I'd love to hear your thoughts on whether a TinkerPop implementation on MongoDB exposing the Gremlin API would be something of value to anyone out here? Does that expand the functionality you could derive from your MongoDB implementation? Let's talk!

There have been multiple attempts at a TinkerPop MongoDB implementation over the years, but I've not known any for TinkerPop3. Of the ones I've seen, I've also not known any implementation to be especially optimized or performant. I never really looked into any of them in any detail to determine why that was. There probably aren't many MongoDB developers on this list, so this might not be the best forum to get answers to this question.
