The DAL doesn't support any graph databases, so you'll have to use third-party libraries to handle any interactions with the database. What kind of "support" are you looking for? Are you saying you want to use the DAL methods to handle queries, inserts, etc.? If so, the current set of methods would probably be inadequate given the very different structure of graph data. You would really need to use a somewhat different abstraction than what is provided by the DAL, in which case, why not just use an existing third-party library that already provides the appropriate abstraction?
