Dev here. Cross-platform for Linux/BSD is on the way, and it's already in the repo now.
How well would this run traditional graph algorithms like PageRank?
At this rate, are we going to see Windows open-sourced? MS is on a roll. My bias since 1996 is being eroded with each OSS release they have, and multi-platform targeted support. I started using VSCode regularly as my main Rust IDE, and I feel dirty for liking it. It's seemless across macOS and Linux.
Doubt it.
In my personal opinion, they're just playing catch up and trying to grab a piece of the pie in the Server space that opensource have been gobbling up.
Linux got web server, cloud, scientific computing, big data (hadoop, spark, etc..), etc...
I believe they're releasing these open source so they can get people on their Azure cloud and get people into their microsoft ecosystem instead. They're emulating what makes Linux so popular, a good ecosystem and also opensource software.
I do not think they will give up Window for free or even opensource at all.
They was willing to lose the internet for desktop. Their mentality was everything goes through the desktop. Google and the internet proved them wrong and made app OS agnostic via webapp. They neglected search engine for desktop and Google ate it up. That's how crazy it is.
There's also a theory of how they dominated Gaming via DirectX so they can keep their OS popular. I doubt they would give up DirectX and gaming lead via opensource.
I think it's a good strategy but I personally love open source ecosystem much more than Microsoft and have trust issues with them in the past.
They're just playing catch up just like Bing vs Google, IE vs Mozilla, etc.. There's still money to be made even though there are clear leader in each space Microsoft neglected.

I find that very abstract software packages like this are difficult to visualize without an example. This page does not offer one, but TFM does -- see [1]. Also note that TFM describes the fact that this is Windows-only. That makes it substantially less interesting, IMO. [1] https://www.graphengine.io/docs/manual/index.html#what-is-ge

Does this relate somehow to the Trinity graph store[1] which Microsoft have previously published papers about? [1] http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=2467799

I love sandboxes, on Windows, Mac OS X, Android, iOS ,Chrome OS X. One day my GNU/Linux installs will also only run sandboxed applications. I guess you don't use either an iOS or Android device, because you cannot do regular UNIX IPC on them.
iOs and android aren't general purpose computers.

And from the looks of it, many people think the same way.
Also the same applies to sandboxed applications on OS X and Chrome OS.

That is what project centipede is all about, a migration path from Win32 to UWP. I don't care, as I would rather see a modern sanboxed OO ABI make Win32 drink beers with Carbon.

Win 10 was free.
