Introducing Graph Datatbases! GameDuell TechTalk with Emil Eifrem

Graph everything! Introducing Neo4j and its use cases

Neo Technology CEO Emil Eifrem presents architecture and
benefits of graph databases during GameDuell TechTalk on November 6th

The main benefit of a graph database is spotting relationships and patterns between people, objects and things, which traditional relational databases are not able to reveal. Amongst various database systems currently on the market, graph databases such as Neo4j present a fundamentally different approach to handling and processing information. They offer a new set of possibilities to query data allowing very specific questions to be asked. The results are a different kind of valuable business insight. The most well known example for a graph is the so called social graph for Facebook. A graph database is able to reduce the complexity of personal relations between millions of users and deliver precious insights about them.
