Cloud Computing August 2024 Meetup - Model and Query Data with Oracle SQL Property Graph in Oracle 23ai Database

Join us for the Cloud Computing Meetup on August 15, 2024, at 1:00 pm ET/12:00 pm CT.  All are welcome!

This month’s session details are below:

Model and Query Data with Oracle SQL Property Graph in Oracle 23ai Database

Speaker: Kai Yu, Oracle ACE Director

By representing data as a graph with vertices for entities and edges for relationship, a property graph data model is based on connections or relationships within data, where vertices and edges can have multiple properties. With this graph model, a property graph database stores explicitly information about relationships or connections between entities.  We can directly query these relationships and perform graph analysis and build machine learning based on the graph data stored in the database. Oracle 23c/23ai database introduced the property graph support in SQL which allows us to create and query a property graph view over the graph data stored in the relational tables.  Coming to this session to learn through examples how to use write relationship-based queries on property graph   using Oracle SQL property graph, such as the new GRAPH_TABLE SQL query operator to build  queries against Property Graphs,  and querying a property graph  with JSON Data Type Label Property.

This session will also discuss use cases and examples about how developers can leverage the SQL property graph for graph analysis.

This presentation will also touch on an advanced topic: how graph databases are used in Generative AI and LLMs area: namely Graph RAG. Graph RAG is an enhancement over the popular RAG approach. Graph RAG includes a graph database as a source of the contextual information sent to the LLM.
