imGraph: A distributed in-memory graph database

In this blog post we briefly describe our new contribution to the big data domain, especially, graph storage and querying. This work was accepted for publication at 2013 ASE/IEEE International

An empirical comparison of graph databases

In recent years, more and more companies provide services that can not be anymore achieved efficiently using relational databases. As such, these companies are forced to use alternative database models

“When you hold a hammer, everything begins to look like a nail!”

A few weeks ago, while we were building our high performance computing grid over Graphical Process Unit (GPU), @Nam-Luc enunciated this sentence in order to spotlight one of the most

Impossibility of change?

As time goes by and information technologies infrastructures are built, historical decisions accumulate. This accumulation put constraints on architectural options for the future. In other words, the more history you
