Hi, I'm looking for a graph-friendly DB that can sync well between many types of client (desktop, mobile) and server, similar to CouchDB/PouchDB. I found [1] below that seems relating but no further discussion. Could you give some more information about that?

Thanks, and congrats on the new funding!!

I think Dgraph is not a great choice for this right now, as it seems you're looking to be able to use those different replicas offline too?

We use RAFT to reach consensus on transactions, so the nodes need to be able to communicate with each other.

I'm definitely adding this as a feature request though, I would love to chat with you more about your requirements if you're interested (francesc@dgraph.io).

Also, have you considered CRDTs? (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conflict-free_replicated_data_...)

Thanks for your confirmation, and addition for a feature request (sorry for a bit late response). So, it will be more practical that I rethink my requirements first. Will send you email if there is further question!
