Elizabeth Ramirez - Graph Database Patterns in Python

Creating and using models from a graph database can be quite different to the ones used for row/column/document-oriented databases, in the sense that the same query patterns could differ significantly in structure and performance. This session will present how to create models in Python for Titan property graphs, that allow you to manipulate graphs as if you were querying with Gremlin DSL.

Transcript

  1. What is this talk about •  Property graph definition • 

    Graphs at scale with Titan, Cassandra and Elasticsearch •  Gremlin Query Language •  Python Patterns for Titan Models
  2. What is not this talk about •  Graph Theory • 

    Titan Data Model •  Existing libraries •  Best practices
  3. The Property Graph Model G = (V, E, λ) V:

    set of vertices E: set of vertices identifiers λ: set of properties
  4. Why a Graph Database? •  Semantic Web: Structured Knowledge Representation

    •  Index-free adjacency: Like memory pointers, but in disk •  Navigation between nodes in constant time. •  Graph != No schema
  5. •  Vendor agnostic •  Blueprints: Collection of Java interfaces for

    representing Graphs •  Pipes: Extension of Iterator, Iterable, chained together (Filter, Aggregation, SideEffect, etc.) •  Groovy: Superset of Java, exposes full JDK to Gremlin Blueprints → Pipes → Gremlin TinkerPop Stack
  6. Why Titan? •  Multiple options for storage backend (Cassandra, HBase,

    BerkeleyDB) •  Multiple options for index backend (Lucene, Elasticsearch) •  Based on Blueprints API and Tinkerpop Stack •  Locking control to ensure consistency •  Edge compression, Vertex-Centric Indices •  Expressive querying using Gremlin: outV  =  g.v(4);  inV  =  g.v(400);     g.addEdge(null,  outV,  inV,  'BT');

  20. Conclusions - Factories are the most universal design patterns. -

    Don't delegate the creation of types to your code. - For bulk imports, use a JVM language - Patterns that don’t do well: SELECT *
