Oracle Big Data Spatial and Graph (BDSG) provides high performance and scalable graph analytics on top of Oracle NoSQL database or HBase. But to make this graph data available to end-users and help them make smart decisions, you need an intuitive visualization interface. Learn how to integrate Linkurious’ Ogma JS graph visualization library with Oracle BDSG to find hidden insights in your graph data.
Discover in this presentation Oracle BDSG and graph visualization use cases (cyber-security, intelligence analysis, fraud, AML); How to connect Ogma to Oracle Big Data Spatial and Graph services in minutes; How to visualize graph data with Ogma to find hidden insights.
How to visualize Oracle Big Data Spatial and Graph with Ogma
1. How to visualize
Oracle Big Data Spatial
and Graph with Ogma.
SAS founded in 2013 in Paris | http://linkurio.us | @linkurious
2. Introduction to Linkurious.
Graph visualization startup.
200+ customers.
AML, intelligence, cyber-security,
medical research.
Ogma.js, graph visualization library
to build interactive graph interfaces.
3. Graph databases in 2017.
Graph Databases Management
Systems (GDBMS) have been
skyrocketing in popularity the last
years.
More than 500% popularity
increase since 2013.
In graph dbs data is stored as a
graph of entities (nodes) and
relationships (edges). Database popularity changes per category, February 2017 - DB
Engines ranking
4. Relationships as first-class citizens.
Graphs are everywhere in today’s
complex and vast datasets.
Graph dbs allow to query through
connected data to answer business’
questions.
Many companies, from fraud
detection units to IT management
departments adopted graph
technologies.
5. Oracle Big Data Spatial and Graph.
Oracle Big Data Spatial and Graph
was launched in May 2015.
Offers graph and spatial analytics
service on top of NoSQL and
Hadoop databases.
Uncover relationships and patterns
in big data to better understand
customers, performances or risks.
6. Why visualization?
Help humans leverage graph
insights.
Review alerts (false positives),
advanced investigation (collect
proofs, identify accomplices or
beneficiaries).
Faster and more effective analysis.
7. Challenge today for Oracle BDSG customers.
Dataviz
tools.
There are plenty powerful
dataviz tools. But they
aren’t designed for the
analysis of graph data and
not directly compatible
with Oracle BDSG.
Analytics
services.
Oracle BDSG offers great
analytics and spatial
services to users but
doesn’t include any graph
visualization tools.
Graph visualization
librairies.
Among the existing
solutions few are able to
tackle the challenge of big
data while Ogma can
render up to 100 000
nodes and edges.
8. Make sense of Oracle data with Ogma.
Ogma is a client-side JS
visualization library compatible with
all modern browsers.
Visualize, customize and interact
with up to 100 000 nodes and
edges from the database.
Integrates seamlessly with Oracle
Big Data Spatial and Graph.
9. Uncovering fraud in the Panama Papers case.
Linkurious was used by the
international consortium of data
journalists working on the Panama
Papers leak.
2,6 terabytes of highly connected
data and 350 journalists.
They collaboratively identified tax
evaders, criminal money launderers
and corrupt public officials.
10. Graph-based search at NASA.
NASA uses Linkurious to connect
seemingly disparate documents
from their knowledge database.
Built a topic model for a subset of
2.000 lessons data to easily access
and navigate NASA’s knowledge.
Visually search and discover
connected topics to capitalize on
existing knowledge and data.
11. IT management with graph technologies.
Companies IT infrastructures are
growing in complexity.
Impact of a failure in IT network is
hard to estimate and to
communicate.
Upgrading aging networks is a
struggle without proper
understanding of the infrastructure.
Visualization helps communicate
complex results and drive action.
17. Integrating Ogma with Oracle BDSG
A specific connector translates the
data stored in Oracle BDSG into a
list of edges and nodes for Ogma to
display.
The Oracle BDSG plugin handles
the connection and queries to the
Blueprints API.
Embed graph visualizations tailored
for your users into your web
applications.
18. Empower analysts with graph insights.
Ogma helps build interactive and
custom graph UIs that empowers
people.
High performance, compatible with
Oracle, easy to customize look and
interactions.
Investigate threats, review alerts,
make smarter decisions.
