## Graph.Build Studio

Studio is a multi user, no-code Graph IDE. Features include:

* LPG Schema designer
* RDF & OWL Ontology designer
* File (JSON / XML / CSV) to Graph ETL designer
* SQL to Graph ETL designer
* Configure Graph.Build Transformer pipelines

## Transformers&#x20;

Configure Graph.Build transformers to create or expose LPG or RDF graph models from a multitude of sources including:

* SQL databases
* HTTP REST endpoints
* Kafka streams
* XML / CSV / JSON objects

N.B. It is recommended to deploy 1 transformer per data source.

Transformers are scalable independent processors which use your model designs to make graph data. They can connect and ingest from virtually anything as a data source;&#x20;

* Kafka for streaming - **Semi Structured Transformer**
* Flat files of CSV, JSON, XML, or spreadsheets - **Semi Structured Transformer**
* Any SQL database - **SQL Transformer**

Change Data Capture (CDC) is supported by the Transformers via an internal integration with Debezium. This allows your graphs to be always up to date and in sync with any changes made in the source data, for example in most SQL databases, Cassandra, or MongoDB.

The transformers can also perform any simple or complex data transformations via our plugin ‘Functions’ architecture. There is a vast library of built in functions, with the ability to also write and load in your own for any specific requirements that may not be covered.

## Graph Writer

The Graph Writer will write your newly created graph data to all graph databases compatible with the three most popular standard query languages; SPARQL for RDF graphs, and Gremlin or openCypher for labelled property graphs.&#x20;

Update and insert modes are supported.
