Résumé de section

  • We introduce the need for graph databases, notably the insufficiences of relational database management:

    • limited support for heterogeneity
    • difficult to write path queries
    • impossible to query the data together with the schema
    • lack of support for data interoperability
    • lack of support for knowledge and reasoning.

    Then, we cover the two main classes of graph databases available today:

    • RDF graph databases;
    • Property graph databases.

    We focus on the data model and query languages.
