• all JOINs are executed every time you query (traverse) the relationship •  executing a JOIN means to search for a key in another table •  with Indices executing a JOIN means to lookup a key •  B-Tree Index: O(log(n)) •  more entries => more lookups => slower JOINs The Problem

What is a Graph Database “A graph database... is an online database management system with CRUD methods that expose a graph data model”1 • Two important properties: • Native graph storage engine: written from the ground up to manage graph data • Native graph processing, including  index-free adjacency to facilitate traversals 1] Robinson,Webber, Eifrem. Graph Databases. O’Reilly, 2013. p. 5. ISBN-10: 1449356265

Graph Databases are Designed to: 1. Store inter-connected data 2. Make it easy to make sense of that data 3. Enable extreme-performance operations for: • Discovery of connected data patterns • Relatedness queries > depth 1 • Relatedness queries of arbitrary length 4. Make it easy to evolve the database

Top Reasons People Use   Graph Databases 1.Problems with Join performance. 2.Continuously evolving data set (often involves wide and sparse tables) 3.The Shape of the Domain is naturally a graph 4.Open-ended business requirements necessitating fast, iterative development.
