Techniques are described herein for a graph-organized file system (GOFS) implemented by an operating system of a computing system. A GOFS represents a data graph with graph components comprising a plurality of nodes and one or more relationships between the nodes. Each node of the graph may be associated with content (of any kind) and/or relationships (of any kind) between the node and other nodes in the graph. Data for a GOFS is stored in a GOFS partition in persistent storage. In the GOFS partition, nodes are represented using “gnode” data structures (also referred to herein as “gnodes”), each of which comprises a content field for node content data and an edge field for edge data representing relationships between nodes. According to various embodiments, a GOFS partition includes dedicated space for each of: a superblock, graph metadata, a block bitmap, a gnode bitmap, a gnode table, and data blocks.
