  - ### Method Detail

    - #### getCardinality

          default VertexProperty.Cardinality getCardinality(String key)

      Gets the `VertexProperty.Cardinality` for a key. By default, this method will return `VertexProperty.Cardinality.list`. Implementations that employ a schema can consult it to determine the `VertexProperty.Cardinality`. Those that do no have a schema can return their default `VertexProperty.Cardinality` for every key.

      Note that this method is primarily used by TinkerPop for internal usage and may not be suitable to reliably determine the cardinality of a key. For some implementation it may offer little more than a hint on the actual cardinality. Generally speaking it is likely best to drop down to the API of the `Graph` implementation for any schema related queries.

    - #### supportsAddVertices

          default boolean supportsAddVertices()

      Determines if a `Vertex` can be added to the `Graph`.

    - #### supportsRemoveVertices

          default boolean supportsRemoveVertices()

      Determines if a `Vertex` can be removed from the `Graph`.

    - #### supportsMultiProperties

          default boolean supportsMultiProperties()

      Determines if a `Vertex` can support multiple properties with the same key.

    - #### supportsDuplicateMultiProperties

          default boolean supportsDuplicateMultiProperties()

      Determines if a `Vertex` can support non-unique values on the same key. For this value to be `true`, then `supportsMetaProperties()` must also return true. By default this method, just returns what `supportsMultiProperties()` returns.

    - #### supportsMetaProperties

          default boolean supportsMetaProperties()

      Determines if a `Vertex` can support properties on vertex properties. It is assumed that a graph will support all the same data types for meta-properties that are supported for regular properties.

    - #### properties

          default Graph.Features.VertexPropertyFeatures properties()

      Gets features related to "properties" on a `Vertex`.
