GREMLIN and SPARQL only define the APIs for graph queries. How do I use the API responses and and plot that as an actual graph, with edges and vertices? Is there something like MySQL Workbench for graphs?
UPDATE: As of Nov 2019, Neptune launched Workbench, which is a Jupyter based visualization for Gremlin and SPARQL.
UPDATE: As of Aug 2020, Neptune Workbench extended support for visualizing graph data as nodes and edges in addition to tabular representation that was previously supported.
Neptune Workbench basically is a Sagemaker instance preconfigured with extensions to help execute Gremlin and SPARQL queries, as well as other Neptune APIs like /loader
, /status
etc. You can easily create these notebooks from the Neptune console. There are no additional charges for the workbench, apart from the Sagemaker costs incurred by the notebook. These notebooks do support Start and Stop APIs, thereby making it possible for you to enable them only when you need it.
