For those who, like me, were looking at the master branch and assumed the codebase was inactive, this is apparently the branch where development is happening:

https://github.com/thinkaurelius/titan/tree/titan09

This is version 0.9, and they are gearing up for a 1.0 release.

Anyone here using it who can summarize their experience? Production-readiness, performance, general usability as an alternative to other NoSQL databases?

There's no mention of this in their READMEs, but Titan can work with Dynamo DB as a storage back-end: http://www.allthingsdistributed.com/2015/08/titan-graphdb-in...

Is there a list of backends? Is PostgreSQL supported?

For graph-based PostgreSQL, check out Sqlg (http://umlg.org/sqlg.html).

It got acquired by DataStax, for better or worse. So it will be actively developed, but might get harder to use in pure OSS (documentation, howtos, etc)

The company was acquired, but according to the original announcement, it wasn't to work on Titan, but on a new graph database product. Sounds like maybe that didn't work out?
