You've probably used a product or service powered by a graph database within the last few hours. From social media sites like Twitter and Facebook to real-time recommendations on eBay, graphs affect our lives everyday.
Graph-Based Search
Traditional relational databases and keyword-based searches simply can't keep up with the crush of Big Data available to today's enterprises. For giants like Google and Facebook, graph-based search tools provide an efficient way to surface volumes of related data for millions of users.
But graph-based search engines are also catching on with startups. CrunchBase profiles the millions of connections between 650,000 high-tech companies, executives and investors, and Decibel offers detailed data on over one million albums of music, including composers, musicians and record history.
