Graph
What is a graph?
• Data model representing entities as vertices and
relationships as edges
• Optionally including attributes
What are typical graphs?
• Social networks
• LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, ...
• Physical networks, supplier networks, ...
• Dependency graphs
• Part hierarchies, data lineage, org charts, ...
• Workflows
• Knowledge graphs
• Associating related entities, e.g. in public safety
E
A D
C B
F

A graph representation of your data
• Data entities become vertices
• Connections between them become edges
Graph Analytics
Consider new nodes J, K, L
• Node I is highly connected, so it could be an
important node
• Node J has only one connection, but that is an
incoming edge from Node I, an important node
• So Node J might be important too
Example: Pagerank algorithm identifies such
