Weaver: A High-Performance, Transactional Graph Database Based on Refinable Timestamps
Summary: Weaver is a distributed graph DB with strictly serializable ACID transactions on dynamic graphs. It uses refinable timestamps (coarse vector timestamps plus a timeline oracle) to achieve strong consistency only on demand, enabling fast graph analytics. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
