Announcing the release of AgensGraph 2.1

The AgensGraph Development Team are pleased to announce the release of AgensGraph v2.1.

AgensGraph is a new generation multi-model graph database for PostgreSQL. AgensGraph offers the graph analysis environment for highly connected data in which users can write, edit, and execute SQL and Cypher query together at the same time. AgensGraph comes along with PostgreSQL compatibility and PostgreSQL Extensions.
