Purchase of the print or Kindle book includes a free PDF eBook
Book DescriptionGraph Query Language is becoming the go-to standard for graph databases, especially with its support for interconnected analytics and GenAI capabilities. This book comes from a team of industry veterans who know exactly how to break down the fundamental GQL concepts, graph terms, definitions, catalog systems, and everything that matters in actual work.
You'll get to grips with graph data types, value expressions, graph matching patterns, and modifying statements through practical GQL examples. With access to the GQL Playground via Ultipa Graph, you'll get hands-on experience querying and manipulating graph data.
Once you've got the basics down, you'll tackle advanced GQL topics such as path modes, complex path matching patterns, shortest path queries, composite statements, session and transaction commands, and procedures. You'll also learn to create extensions and understand the design of graph databases to solve industry issues. The authors cover techniques like property graphs to help you optimize your graph queries and offer insights into the future of GQL and graph technology.
By the end of this book, you'll confidently query and update graph data, run graph algorithms, and create visualizations. Plus, you'll apply your learnings to a real-world use case of money flow analysis for assessing bank client behaviors and detecting transaction risks.What you will learn
Master GQL syntax through hands-on experimentation with the GQL Playground, covering Pattern MATCH, RETURN, INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE
Work systematically with operators, functions, and variables
Familiarize yourself with complex topics such as path matching modes, repeated variables, shortest path, procedures, and transactions
Improve execution speed using indexing or caching systems
Implement access control to secure your graph database operations
Solve real-world issues with a case study focused on money transaction analytics
Who this book is forThis book is for graph database developers, DBAs, programmers, data engineers, and analysts who want to learn the new graph database standard GQL. A basic understanding of graph and relational databases, data models, knowledge of SQL basics, and programming will make the content easy to grasp. While it is designed to be accessible even if you don't have a background in graph theory, familiarity with concepts like nodes, edges, relationships, and the distinction between directed and undirected graphs will enhance your learning experience.
