Abstract of the Prersentation: The field of graph technology has developed rapidly in recent years and established itself as an independent technology sector that will probably even receive its own query language standard (GQL). As almost any business benefits from graph platforms it is no wonder that adoption is broad and fast. There must be good reasons for that. In his talk Axel will give an overview of the evolution of technology and products in the Graph Space from the early beginnings up to current developments in machine learning and artificial intelligence. He will also give some examples and explain why graph technology is so well suited for most use cases and to build intelligent systems.
