Building a Graph-based Analytics PlatformKenny Bastani
Meetup is a valuable source of data for understanding trends around products or brands. Meetup does not support an analytics package to track group statistics overtime unless you are an administrator of a group. There are no third-party tools or websites that analyze Meetup trends to understand how communities grow.
In this talk I will present a graph-based analytics platform that uses the Meetup.com API to collect and analyze membership statistics over time.
This talk will cover:
How to poll and import periodic data from the Meetup.com API into Neo4j using Node.js.
How to track meetup group growth over time using a Neo4j graph database using Node.js.
How to apply tags to meetup groups and report combined growth of all groups over time.
How to build an interactive documented analytics API to support applications using Node.js and Neo4j.
How to build a business dashboard to visualize time-based statistics and reports using a Node.js based REST API that queries Neo4j.
The year of the graph: do you really need a graph database? How do you choose...George Anadiotis
Graph databases have been around for more than 15 years, but it was AWS and Microsoft getting in the domain that attracted widespread interest. If they are into this, there must be a reason.
Everyone wants to know more, few can really keep up and provide answers. And as this hitherto niche domain is in the mainstream now, the dynamics are changing dramatically. Besides new entries, existing players keep evolving.

Presented at Analytics and Data Summit, March 20, 2018
These webinar slides are an introduction to Neo4j and Graph Databases. They discuss the primary use cases for Graph Databases and the properties of Neo4j which make those use cases possible. They also cover the high-level steps of modeling, importing, and querying your data using Cypher and touch on RDBMS to Graph.
Relational databases power most applications, but new use-cases have requirements that they are not well suited for.
That's why new approaches like graph databases are used to handle join-heavy, highly-connected and realtime aspects of your applications.
This talk compares relational and graph databases, show similarities and important differences.
We do a hands-on, deep-dive into ease of data modeling and structural evolution, massive data import and high performance querying with Neo4j, the most popular graph database.
I demonstrate a useful tool which makes data import from existing relational databases with a non-denormalized ER-model a "one click"-experience.
Which leaves biggest challenge for people coming from a relational background is to adapt some of their existing database experience to new ways of thinking.
How Graph Databases efficiently store, manage and query connected data at s...jexp
Graph Databases try to make it easy for developers to leverage huge amounts of connected information for everything from routing to recommendations. Doing that poses a number of challenges on the implementation side. In this talk we want to look at the different storage, query and consistency approaches that are used behind the scenes. We’ll check out current and future solutions used in Neo4j and other graph databases for addressing global consistency, query and storage optimization, indexing and more and see which papers and research database developers take inspirations from.
Before jumping straight in to development of such an graph based app, we asked the question that anyone would ask - "what makes it a case for Neo4J? and can you prove it?" Basically de-risking and making a case for management buy in. Further, its more about convincing ourselves as well and hence this comparison.
So this is about that comparison and the white-paper that has resulted from it. It is not the actual project. Source code used to generate the comparison numbers is available on https://github.com/EqualExperts/Apiary-Neo4j-RDBMS-Comparison
Graph Data: a New Data Management FrontierDemai Ni
Graph Data: a New Data Management Frontier -- Huawei’s view and Call for Collaboration by Demai Ni:
Huawei provides Enterprise Databases, and are actively exploring the latest technology to provide end-to-end Data Management Solution on Cloud. We are looking at to bridge classic RDMS to Graph Database on a distributed platform.
Challenges in the Design of a Graph Database Benchmark graphdevroom
Graph databases are one of the leading drivers in the emerging, highly heterogeneous landscape of database management systems for non-relational data management and processing. The recent interest and success of graph databases arises mainly from the growing interest in social media analysis and the exploration and mining of relationships in social media data. However, with a graph-based model as a very flexible underlying data model, a graph database can serve a large variety of scenarios from different domains such as travel planning, supply chain management and package routing.
During the past months, many vendors have designed and implemented solutions to satisfy the need to efficiently store, manage and query graph data. However, the solutions are very diverse in terms of the supported graph data model, supported query languages, and APIs. With a growing number of vendors offering graph processing and graph management functionality, there is also an increased need to compare the solutions on a functional level as well as on a performance level with the help of benchmarks. Graph database benchmarking is a challenging task. Already existing graph database benchmarks are limited in their functionality and portability to different graph-based data models and different application domains. Existing benchmarks and the supported workloads are typically based on a proprietary query language and on a specific graph-based data model derived from the mathematical notion of a graph. The variety and lack of standardization with respect to the logical representation of graph data and the retrieval of graph data make it hard to define a portable graph database benchmark. In this talk, we present a proposal and design guideline for a graph database benchmark. Typically, a database benchmark consists of a synthetically generated data set of varying size and varying characteristics and a workload driver. In order to generate graph data sets, we present parameters from graph theory, which influence the characteristics of the generated graph data set. Following, the workload driver issues a set of queries against a well-defined interface of the graph database and gathers relevant performance numbers. We propose a set of performance measures to determine the response time behavior on different workloads and also initial suggestions for typical workloads in graph data scenarios. Our main objective of this session is to open the discussion on graph database benchmarking. We believe that there is a need for a common understanding of different workloads for graph processing from different domains and the definition of a common subset of core graph functionality in order to provide a general-purpose graph database benchmark. We encourage vendors to participate and to contribute with their domain-dependent knowledge and to define a graph database benchmark proposal.

Bigdata and ai in p2 p industry: Knowledge graph and inferencesfbiganalytics
Title: Knowledge graph and inference: use cases in online financial market
Abstract: While the knowledge graph is an active research field in machine learning community, this powerful tool is still less known to the people in the industry. In this talk, I will first introduce knowledge graph and inference techniques including the recent developments which combine with deep learning. Then I will talk about several use cases in online financial market: fraud/anomaly detection, lost contact discovery, intelligent search, name disambiguation and etc. I will also briefly mention how to build knowledge graph using neo4j from different data sources.
Relational databases were conceived to digitize paper forms and automate well-structured business processes, and still have their uses. But RDBMS cannot model or store data and its relationships without complexity, which means performance degrades with the increasing number and levels of data relationships and data size. Additionally, new types of data and data relationships require schema redesign that increases time to market.
A graph database like Neo4j naturally stores, manages, analyzes, and uses data within the context of connections meaning Neo4j provides faster query performance and vastly improved flexibility in handling complex hierarchies than SQL. Join this webinar to learn why companies are shifting away from RDBMS towards graphs to unlock the business value in their data relationships.

Off-Label Data Mesh: A Prescription for Healthier DataHostedbyConfluent
"Data mesh is a relatively recent architectural innovation, espoused as one of the best ways to fix analytic data. We renegotiate aged social conventions by focusing on treating data as a product, with a clearly defined data product owner, akin to that of any other product. In addition, we focus on building out a self-service platform with integrated governance, letting consumers safely access and use the data they need to solve their business problems.
Data mesh is prescribed as a solution for _analytical data_, so that conventionally analytical results (think weekly sales or monthly revenue reports) can be more accurately and predictably computed. But what about non-analytical business operations? Would they not also benefit from data products backed by self-service capabilities and dedicated owners? If you've ever provided a customer with an analytical report that differed from their operational conclusions, then this talk is for you.
Adam discusses the resounding successes he has seen from applying data mesh _off-label_ to both analytical and operational domains. The key? Event streams. Well-defined, incrementally updating data products that can power both real-time and batch-based applications, providing a single source of data for a wide variety of application and analytical use cases. Adam digs into the common areas of success seen across numerous clients and customers and provides you with a set of practical guidelines for implementing your own minimally viable data mesh.
Finally, Adam covers the main social and technical hurdles that you'll encounter as you implement your own data mesh. Learn about important data use cases, data domain modeling techniques, self-service platforms, and building an iteratively successful data mesh."

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.
