Relationships are everywhere

Graph Databases

• Optimized around data relationships– Relationships as first class citizens– Super fast traversal between entities– Rich/flexible annotation of connections

• Small focused API (typically not SQL)– Natively work with concepts of Vertex/Edge– SQL has no concept of “navigation”– Most attempts based in SQL are convoluted

Vertex alice = myGraph.addVertex(new Person(“Alice”)); Vertex bob = myGraph.addVertex(new Person(“Bob”)); Vertex carlos = myGraph.addVertex(new Person(“Carlos”)); Vertex charlie = myGraph.addVertex(new Person(“Charlie”));

alice.addEdge(new Meeting(“Denver”, “5-27-10”), bob);bob.addEdge(new Call(timestamp), carlos);carlos.addEdge(new Payment(100000.00), charlie);bob.addEdge(new Call(timestamp), charlie);
