I am currently evaluating using 2.2.0 edition of Orientdb and i am running into an issue while importing data using the ETL tools provided.

The transformers are able to correctly merge the vertices info if already existing or create new ones if missing, create missing edges between vertices , skip creating new edges if edge already exists between vertices.

however i am unable to find a mechanism which will detect outdated edges and delete them. The edges were created between 2 vertices in past but in new update received the edge no longer exists between the vertices and hence needs to be deleted.

Can you please provide any pointers to suggest if this is possible using the ETL or will i have to drop using ETL tool provided and instead use java api to load the data.

Hi,
can you explain better what you do with your update ?

In any case when you delete a vertex the edges coming in and out of vertex are deleted.

Best regards,
Alessandro
