The document discusses graph databases and their properties. Graph databases are structured to store graph-based data by using nodes and edges to represent entities and their relationships. They are well-suited for applications with complex relationships between entities that can be modeled as graphs, such as social networks. Key graph database technologies mentioned include Neo4j, OrientDB, and TinkerPop which provides graph traversal capabilities.
This document discusses messaging queues and platforms. It begins with an introduction to messaging queues and their core components. It then provides a table comparing 8 popular open source messaging platforms: Apache Kafka, ActiveMQ, RabbitMQ, NATS, NSQ, Redis, ZeroMQ, and Nanomsg. The document discusses using Apache Kafka for streaming and integration with Google Pub/Sub, Dataflow, and BigQuery. It also covers benchmark testing of these platforms, comparing throughput and latency. Finally, it emphasizes that messaging queues can help applications by allowing producers and consumers to communicate asynchronously.
