Properties on Relationships

Weights, timestamps, confidence — first-class property-graph features that RDF needs reification to express.

Why it matters

Edge properties let you carry context (when, how much, how sure) without inventing intermediate nodes.

Make it stick

Use the prompts below to anchor properties on relationships to a real graph you own.

  • Pick a graph workload you've shipped — where would *properties on relationships* have changed the design?
  • What's the smallest version of this pattern you could prototype on a real dataset next sprint?
  • What is the most likely *misuse* of this idea, and how would you catch it in a model or query review?
