EFFICIENT COMPILATION OF GRAPH QUERIES INCLUDING COMPLEX EXPRESSIONS ON TOP OF SQL BASED RELATIONAL ENGINE

Abstract:

Techniques support graph pattern matching queries inside a relational database management system (RDBMS) that supports SQL execution. The techniques compile a graph pattern matching query into a SQL query that can then be executed by the relational engine. As a result, techniques enable execution of graph pattern matching queries on top of the relational engine by avoiding any change in the existing SQL engine.
