Modern data modeling: Multi-Model approach using ArangoDB database
This talk gives a general purpose overview of ArangoDB. First the "Multi-Model" database movement is explained, in particular what are the main advantages and technological benefits. For diving deeper we recommend our White Paper https://www.arangodb.com/arangodb-whi...
An introduction to the three data-models ArangoDB covers (Documents, Graphs and Key-Values) and the reasons behind the technology. Next we will learn the ArangoDB Query language (AQL) with hands-on examples and exercises. We will also do a thorough comparison to SQL, see where the differences are and what makes AQL better comprehensible for developers. AQL is a uniform query language that can cover all three data-models of ArangoDB, no context switches necessary. Finally we touch the Foxx Microservice framework which allows to easily extend ArangoDB and include it in your Microservice landscape.
