Graph data enrichment

A system comprising at least one computing device comprising at least one processor, a memory, and instructions executable by the at least one processor to create an application comprising:

• a) a graph database, maintained in a data store, comprising a representation of a current state of an automation environment comprising a plurality of data sources, wherein the data sources are represented as vertices in the graph database and relationships between the individual data sources are represented as edges in the graph database;
• b) a plurality of software agents, each software agent configured to perform operations comprising:
• i. applying an algorithm to identify patterns in the graph database, wherein the algorithm comprises a statistical analysis, a machine learning model, or a combination thereof;
• and
• ii. generating a specific data enrichment based on one or more identified patterns by requesting creation or deletion of one or more vertices in the graph, one or more edges in the graph, one or more vertex properties in the graph, or one or more edge properties in the graph;
• and
• c) a software module contributing the generated data enrichment back to the graph database.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage media encoded with instructions executable by one or more processors to provide an application comprising:

• a) a graph database, maintained in a data store, comprising a representation of a current state of an automation environment comprising a plurality of data sources, wherein the data sources are represented as vertices in the graph database and relationships between the individual data sources are represented as edges in the graph database;
• b) a plurality of software agents, each software agent configured to perform operations comprising:
• i. applying an algorithm to identify patterns in the graph database, wherein the algorithm comprises a statistical analysis, a machine learning model, or a combination thereof;
• and
• ii. generating a specific data enrichment based on one or more identified patterns by requesting creation or deletion of one or more vertices in the graph, one or more edges in the graph, one or more vertex properties in the graph, or one or more edge properties in the graph;
• and
• c) an enrichment module contributing the generated data enrichment back to the graph database.
