OVERVIEW
Why it makes sense to know about graph databases

„Graph databases will come into vogue. One key gap in the Hadoop
ecosystem is for graph databases, which support rich mining and visualization of
relationships, influence, and behavioral propensities. The market for graph
databases will boom in 2012 as companies everywhere adopt them for social
media analytics, marketing campaign optimization, and customer experience
fine-tuning. We will see VCs put big money behind graph database and analytics
startups. Many big data platform and tool vendors will acquire the startups to
supplement their expanding Hadoop, NoSQL, and enterprise data warehousing
(EDW) portfolios. Social graph analysis, although not a brand-new field, will
become one of the most prestigious specialties in the data science arena,
focusing on high-powered drilldown into polystructured behavioral data sets.“

NEO4J
Traversal

• Relationship-expander (delivers edges of a vertex)

• Evaluators (evaluate if a vertex is going to be traversed or if it
should be taken to the result set)

• Projection of the result set (e.g. „take the last vertex of the path“

• Uniqueness level (sets in steps, whether a node could be visited
several times)

18

NEO4J
Cypher & Gremlin
Feature Gremlin Cypher

Paradigm Imperative programming Declarative programming

•Developed Marko Rodriguez (Tinkerpop) •In-house development
Description • •Cypher provides greater opportunities for optimization
Based on xpath to describe the traversal
•Developed using Groovy •Good for traversals that need back tracking
•30-50% faster on „simple“ traversals •Output is a table
START
me=node:people(name={myname})
MATCH
me-[:HAS_CART]->cart-[:CONTAINS_ITEM]->item
outE[label=HAS_CART].inV item<-[:PURCHASED]-user-[:PURCHASED]->recommendation
.outE[label=CONTAINS_ITEM].inV RETURN recommendation
Example
.inE[label=PURCHASED].outV
.outE[label=PURCHASED].inV START
d=node(1), e=node(2)
MATCH
p = shortestPath( d-[*..15]->e )
RETURN p

FALLEN-8
Overview

• In-memory graph database

• Implemented in C# (platform independent because of mono)

• 4 billion vertices or edges, each element can have app. 65000
properties

• Indexes on vertices and/or edges

• Core is open source (MIT-license), plugins can have any license

31

FALLEN-8
Persistence

• Persistence in form of „save-points“ (all vertices and edges are
serialized en bloc)

• Commodity hardware allows to (de)serialize app. 2 million
vertices or edges per second

• Saving blocks only write operations

• Performance + reliability
