Regardless of how you use it, your data is a vital asset. Most analysts chase information between rows and tables to piece together insights. However, when your data connections become more complex, using graph technology will get you the answers in a fraction of the time and at the scale that’s needed.

Graph technology is a innovative way to make discoveries faster. It makes complex connected data easily accessible and understandable to any data-driven user and lets them see their data in a new way.

With a graph database you can connect data as it is stored, giving you visualization and analysis options between the interconnected information to discover complex patterns and generate insight. Because sometimes, the relationships between data points tell you more than the points themselves.

After all, the real world is more complex than rows and columns; it is full of relationships and networks that are more connected than ever. Making sense of these complex relationships and interdependencies is key to informed decision making.

Real World Applications

Graph solutions help organizations with many practical use cases across all industries and are usually applied with one or more major goals in mind: better decision making, increased quality of predictions, creating new ways to learn and innovate.

This can translate into:

• increased customer satisfaction,
• faster time to results,
• and increased revenue.

From creating recommendation engines to fraud detection, to showing the connection between different pharmaceutical drugs and their components, graphs give businesses another way to look into their data.

Some typical graph analytics use cases include:

Supply Chain Management

The more steps there are in the chain between the various suppliers, manufacturers, retailers and consumers, the greater the risk of inefficiencies, fraud, contamination, and unethical practices. The challenge of tracking every product, its journey and requirements can create incredibly large numbers of interdependent data, and a Graph’s relationship-centric approach enables firms to better manage, read and visualize their data. This gives a trackable and in-depth picture of all products, suppliers and facilities and the relationships between them.

Healthcare / Life Sciences

Pharmaceutical companies wanting to find associations across vast experimental data and medical research use a graph to merge historical data and new high-content image data. The resulting knowledge graph enables a better understanding of biology, the correlation of elements and how to better develop the next generation of medicines.

Utilities

Companies that provide utilities such as water, electricity, and natural gas can leverage graph analysis to build and maintain the most optimal utility distribution network.

What graph networks can do for your business…

• Bring true transparency in your sales funnel 
• Find clusters of products and services that sell
• Define data lineage for compliance (GDPR) or due diligence
• Develop fraud detection
• Create a queryable inventory of systems, users and data
• Better governance through a digital business process landscape
• Specify your customer relationship network
