Description
Taxonomy was introduced as a tech preview feature earlier, but the following challenges in design/implementation make it necessary to replace the current implementation with newer features being introduced:
1. Current implementation uses tags to model taxonomy terms, which limits a term to be associated to one entity only. Associating with multiple entities would require copying of a term, making it difficult to manage.
2. Current implementation uses dot separated naming convention to model taxonomy hierarchy. This makes it inefficient to rebuild taxonomy hierarchy.
3. Current implementation uses tinkerpop blueprints API and makes it difficult for migration to newer tinkerpop version.
4. Current implementation is tied to tinkerpop2/titan0 version and since this is not abstracted; it blocks the introduction of JanusGraph into Atlas
ATLAS-1410 introduces a new Glossary API, which uses entities to model taxonomy terms and uses relationships feature to associate terms with entities. Also, the new model includes categories, which makes Glossary to be used for wider use-cases. Use of relationships to associate terms with entities would also allow tag-propagation more naturally.
Given above, I propose to remove current tech-preview implementation of taxonomy feature from both server-side and UI in master branch. Once this is removed, existing taxonomy terms will be seen as tags along with rest of the tags.
