GRAPH DATABASES WILL CHANGE YOUR FREAKIN’ LIFE ED FINKLER CTO
GraphStory.com WHAT IS?
I’VE GOT A DOPE VISUALIZATION FOR YOU DOGG This Effin
Guy HEY I JUST DOWNLOADED D3.JS
GraphStory.com NO. INCORRECT.
GraphStory.com GRAPH THEORY AND MATH AND STUFF
GraphStory.com I WAS TOLD THERE WOULD BE NO MATH
GraphStory.com IT’S ABOUT DATA
MANY DATA Visualiza!on by Kim Albrecht h"p:/ /www.kimalbrecht.com/project/cosmic-web/
GraphStory.com BUT IGNORE THAT
GraphStory.com ZOOOOOO000M IN
GraphStory.com HOW DO WE REPRESENT A THING OR AN ENTITY
OR WHATEVER YOU WANT TO CALL IT
GraphStory.com RELATIONAL DATABASES USE A LEDGER-STYLE STRUCTURE
GraphStory.com CAN GET COMPLEX AND RIGID WHEN REPRESENTING RELATIONSHIPS
GraphStory.com LET’S TALK ABOUT [PROPERTY] GRAPHS
GraphStory.com NEO4J JANUSGRAPH ORIENTDB ARANGODB ET AL…
GraphStory.com GRAPHS ARE MUCH SIMPLER
GraphStory.com THINGS ARE NODES OR VERTICES
GraphStory.com NODES HAVE PROPERTIES { KEYS: “VALUES” }
GraphStory.com NODES HAVE LABELS TO TELL YOU WHAT TYPE OF
THING IT IS
GraphStory.com n:Person id: 1234 first_name: “Ed” last_name: “Finkler”
GraphStory.com NODES ARE CONNECTED BY RELATIONSHIPS OR EDGES
GraphStory.com RELATIONSHIPS HAVE A TYPE AND A DIRECTION AND CAN
HAVE PROPERTIES
GraphStory.com p1:Person id: 4321 first_name: “Griffin” last_name: “Finkler” p2:Person id:
1234 first_name: “Ed” last_name: “Finkler” r:CHILD_OF created: 2002
GraphStory.com DOTS AND LINES ALL THE WAY DOWN
GraphStory.com IT’S SIMPLER
GraphStory.com IT’S MORE POWERFUL
GraphStory.com WHEN THE MEANING IS IN THE RELATIONSHIPS
GraphStory.com SOMETIMES DIRECT RELATIONSHIPS BUT THAT’S NOT HARD TO DO
WITH RELATIONAL DBS PERSON A PERSON B
GraphStory.com SOMETIMES INDIRECT RELATIONSHIPS THIS IS HARDER TO DO TRAVERSE
WITH RELATIONAL DATABASES ACTOR A ACTOR B MOVIE A DIRECTOR A MOVIE B ACTOR C
GraphStory.com ANSWERING QUESTIONS YOU DIDN’T EXPECT
YOU WANT TO KNOW HOW MANY PEOPLE WHO BOUGHT A
TOASTER, LIVE IN KANSAS, AND HAVE A CRIMINAL RECORD, USED THE COUPON IN YESTERDAY’S PAPER? NO. GET THE HELL OUT. This Effin Guy ASKING YOUR BACKEND DEV IF YOU CAN GET SOME NEW DATA OUT OF THE DB
GraphStory.com WITH A GRAPH, YOU COULD ANSWER THAT QUESTION. IF
YOU HAVE ALL THAT DATA IN THERE, AND THERE ARE PATHS BETWEEN THEM.
GraphStory.com YOU CAN ADD MORE RELATIONSHIPS AS NEEDED AND STILL
BE PERFORMANT
GraphStory.com EGOTISTICAL LIVE QUERY TIME
GraphStory.com CMD+TAB, SON
GraphStory.com GRAPHS AREN’T MAGIC
GraphStory.com GRAPHS DON’T SOLVE ALL YOUR PROBLEMS
GraphStory.com IF YOU’RE ASKING QUESTIONS ABOUT THE RELATIONSHIPS, THEY ARE
REALLY NICE AND REALLY POWERFUL AND SOMETIMES SEEM LIKE WITCHCRAFT
GraphStory.com ESPECIALLY IF YOU HAVE MANY DATAS
None
WHAT GREAT DELIGHTS AWAIT YOU DATAS FOR FUN AND EXPLORATION
