Almost a month has passed since the announcement of Memgraph 2.0 - a streaming graph platform. Here is once morewhat's new - what are all the technologies, what are all the pieces of the puzzle that allow you to easily stream, graph, and build with Memgraph.
Memgraph is proud to present the first instance of the Memgraph App Challenge (MAC), an online hackathon meant to promote graph-related technologies and the Memgraph Ecosystem. The point of the MAC is to implement anything that adds value to the world of graphs and uses Memgraph! Also, we have prepared a few enticing prizes for our brave contestants. Join the Challenge!
[Tutorial] How to build a Spotify Recommendation Engine using Kafka and Memgraph
We have a lot of music lovers in our company, and when one of our teammates came across an open dataset of Spotify playlists, we knew it would let us scratch our itch to try out building a recommendation engine on top of Memgraph. It was a lot of fun – we’re excited to show it off.
[Tutorial] Twitch Streaming Graph Analysis - Part 1/3: Data Source and Backend Implementation
Twitch is the world’s leading live streaming platform for gamers. We had an idea of exploring the Twitch dataset to see which streamers, teams, and games are most popular. Also, we wanted to see which people or bots are considered the most reliable for VIP or moderator badges.
Our growing community of leading developers is here to unlock a whole new world of graph-based applications on top of your streaming data. Engage in meaningful and useful conversations with other Memgraph developers and the Memgraph team. We are all here with the same goal - building world-class graph applications.
