Graph Analysis and Graph Pattern Matching in the Database      

   

Modeling information as graphs is a natural and intuitive way for understanding complex relationships such as interactions in social networks or financial transactions between legal entities. With the Spatial and Graph option, Oracle offers an in-memory analytics engine based on the concepts of property graphs, which comes with a large number of graph algorithms out-of-the box and which supports graph pattern matching. In this session, we will explain the architecture of the solution, look at how inherently schema-less data is stored in the relational database and how the resulting data structures can be used for graph traversal queries, computational analysis in PL/SQL, or pattern matching by means of SQL queries.
