Let Me Graph That For You

Explore the power of graph databases in this 55-minute conference talk from GOTO Amsterdam 2014. Discover how graphs serve as an excellent abstraction for modeling connectedness and how graph databases excel at handling complex, densely-connected data. Learn about real-world applications of graph databases in social networks and fraud analysis. Dive into Cypher, a graph query language, and understand concepts like Triadic Closure. Examine practical examples including a social network and a parcel network, and gain insights into data modeling and path-based operations in graph databases. Enhance your understanding of managing complexity and variable structure in data through this informative presentation by Ian Robinson, author of 'Graph Databases' and 'Rest in Practice'.
