GraphRVA III: Description Logics and Atomic Knowledge Graphs
Mon, Aug 10 · 5:30 PM EDT
Ippon Technologies USA, 3431 W Leigh St, Richmond, VA, US
Join us for the 3rd GraphRVA meetup, MONDAY August 10th at Ippon!

We'll have two fantastic speakers:

Doug Stanford, Process Analyst at Instant, joins GraphRVA remotely to share his unique graph-based knowledge system, one that breaks raw transcripts and unstructured docs down into small, queryable "atoms" of interconnected information.

AND

Paula Gearon, Principal Software Engineer at Ardoq, shares DLe, a Description Logic Extension for OWL that compiles your OWL-based ontologies into compact Description Logic. Saving tokens while distilling your business rules down to deterministic mathematical notation at the same time!

Hope to see you there!

Graph Databases - Solving Business Problems with Connected Data
Wed, Sep 23 · 5:30 PM EDT
Ippon Technologies USA, 3431 W Leigh St, Richmond, VA, US
On September 23rd, GraphRVA is super excited to co-host Graph Databases, Solving Business Problems with Connected Data alongside the Richmond Java Users Group at... you guessed it... Ippon!

In this connected world, traditional data stores often make it difficult to find valuable relationships. By making them a key component of the model, contextualizing a set of data becomes incredibly simple.
In this session, we will walk through what a graph database is and how it can transform your applications and data. We will explore creating, querying, and displaying data and learn how to use simple tools to interact with the database. We will cover the whiteboard-friendly model and the basics of the Cypher query language. Live demos will show developers how to interface with the database and the data in it.

Join us for this joint presentation with Richmond Java Users Group to learn how graph databases are used to improve the data world and help developers easily extract/import connected data!
