**Pregel**
+
Pregel is an implementation of classic BSP model by Google (PageRank) to analyze large graphs exclusively. It was followed by open source implementations - Apache’s Giraph and Hama; which were BSP models built on top of Hadoop.
Pregel is highly scalable, fault-tolerant and can successfully represent larger complex graphs. Google claims the API becomes easy once a developer adopts “think like a vertex” mode.
