Graph Data Structures Advantages Designed for relationships & connections Flexible data structure No DB migrations Disadvantages No schema for consistency Non-performant for simple table data Common use cases Social networks Public transit systems(Magia Naturalis et Innaturalis, Unknown, 1612/1849)
Dealing with Unstructured Data Edit all nodes of a given label as if they are in a table
Dealing with Unstructured Data Suggest existing relationships for a node based on its label

1. A paradigm shift from the traditional data model. SQL databases enforce a strict schema, whereas NoSQL databases has a week notion of schema. At the core all NoSQL databases are key/value systems, the difference is whether the database understands the value or not. Different type of NoSQL databases have different properties. We'll see four major
The Department uses numerous databases and data management systems, and those used most frequently by R/W Planning and Management (P&M) personnel are discussed in the tables below entitled “R/W Databases and Data Management Systems” and “Department Databases and Data Management Systems.” 3.01.02.00 R/W Data Management Systems
In Abrasive Jet Machining (AJM), abrasive particles are made to impinge on the work material at a high velocity. The jet of abrasive particles is carried by carrier gas or air. High velocity stream of abrasive is generated by converting the pressure energy of the carrier gas or air to its kinetic energy and hence high velocity jet. Nozzle directs the abrasive jet in a controlled manner onto .
