## 配置解读

`agens` 模板在 `pg-meta` 集群中启用 `pg_mode: agens`，并使用 `agensgraph` 内核包替换标准 PostgreSQL 内核。

**关键特性**：
- 属性图模型能力（Vertex / Edge）
- 支持 Cypher 查询语法，可与 SQL 混合使用
- 兼容 PostgreSQL 生态与常规运维方式
- 默认基于 PostgreSQL 17 兼容内核

**适用场景**：
- 图关系分析与路径查询
- 社交关系、风控关联、知识图谱等图数据场景
- 需要在 PostgreSQL 体系中引入图查询能力

**注意事项**：
- AgensGraph 当前模板固定使用 `pg_version: 17`
- 默认模板为单节点快速启用，生产场景建议按需扩展高可用拓扑
- 图模型与 Cypher 语义请结合 AgensGraph 官方文档进行设计
