MongoDB Days Silicon Valley: Implementing Graph Databases with MongoDB
The document discusses the concept of graph databases, focusing on their structure consisting of nodes and edges, and the implementation of such databases using MongoDB. It provides an example using tennis player Steffi Graf to illustrate how graphs can track relationships such as tournaments and sponsorships. Apertiiva utilizes graph databases to manage dynamic hospital datasets and medical vocabularies for improved health analytics.

Editor's Notes
- #5 e.g. distance between two cities (edge) population of city (node)
- #7 Steffi held the #1 rank for 377 weeks total, longer than any tennis player male or female She’s won 22 Grand Slam singles titles, which is the most held by any player male or female since the Open Era started in 1968 She’s won a Golden Slam, winning all 4 grand slam tournaments AND the olympic gold medal in a single year, and is the only player in the history of tennis to do so And her name is a homonym for graph, which is how I ended up learning all the previous facts
- #9 All tournaments per year should get their own node Participants, winners, scores
- #10 Tracking tennis players and their results? Tournaments may be independent nodes, one per tournament Property of Years Won can reside on the edge (as this is per player
- #13 Tournaments can actually have the property of years won
- #14 All of these have one major issue: walking the graph is computing intensive and results in many queries to traverse the graph
- #16 One path list per relationship/unique path Indexing the path array leads to speedy results This will allow (with some post-processing): Transitive Closure Reachability becomes a trivial query query example
- #18 As graphs get larger, performance becomes an issue RXNORM 204,000 SNOMED 311,000 ICD10 PCS 76000 Sharding on edge id + graph id Collection per graph id Extremely wide child models can break the document size Implementing pseudo subnodes can alleviate this pressure
- #19 Apervita allows medical authors to code to common datasets Hospitals aren’t forced to conform their data, but can take advantage of our mapping tools to execute algorithms on their own data Medical Vocabularies are by their nature graphs SNOMED, ICD-9, ICD-10, RxNorm The ability to code an algorithm to the “generic” and subsume for the specific is extremely powerful e.g. Coding to Diabetes Mellitus (SNOMED ID 73211009) can capture all subnodes such as gestational diabetes, diabetes type II, diabetes type I
- #21 Think about your data model What are your nodes? What are your edges? What should be a property vs a node? Use MongoDb’s indexing power to have quick access to your paths for graph calculations Think about your overall expected graph size Does the width imply faux nodes? Should you shard? If multiple subgraphs, should you separate into individual collections?
