Traversing Graph Databases with Gremlin

http://photos3.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/5/c/7/7/event_23543671.jpeg

Graphs provide an elegant way to model a domain. Graph traversing, the means by which graphs are queried, provide an elegant way to process that domain model to solve problems. This mini-lecture and short-tutorial will introduce the Gremlin traversal language (http://gremlin.tinkerpop.com (http://gremlin.tinkerpop.com/)) and explain its applicability to real-world problems.

BIO: Dr. Marko A. Rodriguez (http://markorodriguez.com/) is a graph systems architect working on the open source TinkerPop stack (http://tinkerpop.com (http://tinkerpop.com/)). Marko lives in the high desert of Santa Fe, New Mexico with his partner and three dogs: Puppy, Mama, and Chelsea.
