Neo4j: NOSQL and the Benefits of Graph Databases

Bookmarks
59:13

Summary

Emil Eifrem overviews the trends leading to NOSQL (Not Only SQL), and the four emerging NOSQL solutions: key-value stores, plus column, document and graph databases. He also explains the internals of a graph database and an example of using Neo4j - a graph database - in production.

Bio

Emil Eifrem, the founder of Neo4j, created a text role-playing game (that is still being played 15 years later) in C, but is better known for being a developer, an evangelist, mentor, and consulting architect for graph databases while preaching the demise of tabular solutions everywhere.

    There seems to be a technical issue with InfoQ an slides. I've seen this on other presentations recently. There is also something wrong with the way they handle animations, even when they are very simple.

  • Excellent presentation

    I think this is an excellent presentation.
    The two parts:
    Overview of NoSQL
    and
    Overview of Neo4j
    are really good.
    You can see the speaker know his stuff the talk is polished...

    And the most important thing I guess it has really made me think of experimenting with graph databases.

  • Very thorough stuff
