Comparing graph data science libraries for querying and analysing datasets: towards data science queries on graphs

Abstract

This paper presents an experimental study to compare analysis tools with management systems for querying and analysing graphs. Our experiment compares classic graph navigational operations queries where analytics tools and management systems adopt different execution strategies. Then, our experiment addresses data science pipelines with clustering and prediction models applied to graphs. In this kind of experiment, we underline the interest in combining both approaches and the interest of relying on a parallel execution platform for executing queries.
