Comparative study of relational and graph databases
Małgorzata Łazarska, Olga Siedlecka-Lamch · 2019
We live in a time of incredible technological development. In a fraction of a second, millions of information are generated and processed all over the world. The need to develop new models of databases is related to the dynamic and the amount of data stored. Using database schemes which are rigid and do not quickly adapt to changes occurring in the real world is ineffective and sometimes simply impossible. The solution of all these problems could be, among others, graph databases.In this talk, we present a detailed comparison of relational and graph databases, compiling the stages of design, implementation and testing. At each stage, we keep the same data in both databases, checking how easily they can be modelled in each logical model, then imported, and finally made queries and modifications on them.
