My talk at J On The Beach 2016 (Malaga) about OrientDB and Multi-Model databases

1. #OrientDB - @ldellaquila
- the 2nd generation
of
(Multi-Model) NoSQL
And why GraphDB are the starting point
of this revolution

Data by itself has little value, it’s the
relationship
between data that gives it
incredible value

avoid

Joins are executed every time
you cross relationships
Querying million of records
joining 3-4 tables could
generate billions of
combinations

13. #OrientDB - @ldellaquila
This is why the database
query performance
suffers as the database
increases in size
O(Log N)

An Edge connects only 2 vertices
Use multiple edges to represent 1-N and
N-M relationships

1-N and N-M Relationships

Congrats! This is your diploma in
«Graph Theory»

21. #OrientDB - @ldellaquila
How does a true*
Graph Database
manage relationships?
*a “Graph” layer on top of a DBMS doesn’t qualify as a true GraphDB

26. #OrientDB - @ldellaquila
A Graph Database creates the
relationship just once
(when the edge is created)
VS
RDBMS computes the
relationship every time
you query a database

27. #OrientDB - @ldellaquila
When you move from a RDBMS
to a Graph Database you jump
from a O(log N) speed to a near O(1)
With a Graph Database, the
traversing time is
not affected by database size!
This is huge in the BigData age

28. #OrientDB - @ldellaquila
No costs to traverse relationships:
• Recommendation engines
• Social Applications
• Spatial Apps
• Master Data Management
• Information Clustering

So the Graph Model
Is the only solution to efficiently
manage relationships
But what about data complexity?
And data consistency?
And scaling?

- No standard between NoSQL
products
- Multiple vendors = multiple skills
- ETL + synchronization code
is costly to write and maintain
- Performance and Reliability is
hard to predict

• Teleporter (v2.2)
Data Extraction and Loading

45. #OrientDB - @ldellaquila
• Multi-Master architecture
• Tunable consistency through the usage of a quorum, per
database or single class (table)
• Synchronous and Asynchronous replication
• Zero config: if multicast is enabled the server is attached to
the cluster
