We are excited to announce that [JanusGraph](http://janusgraph.org/) now works with YugaByte DB using the Cassandra Query Language wire-protocol. You can now use YugaByte to build graph applications - they will benefit from the strong consistency, high performance and linear scalability of the underlying database.

Here is a simple 5-minute guide to [trying out JanusGraph with YugaByte DB](https://docs.yugabyte.com/preview/integrations/janusgraph/).

Don’t forget to [install YugaByte](https://docs.yugabyte.com/quick-start/install/) first.
