自20世纪80年代以来，关系模型一直主导着计算机行业，主要用于存储和检索数据。然而，最近关系数据库已经失去了它的重要性，因为它依赖于一个严格的模式，这使得在对象之间添加新的关系变得困难。它失败的另一个重要原因是，随着可用数据的增长，使用关系模型变得越来越复杂，因为连接大量的表不能有效地工作。建议的解决方案之一是转移到GRAPH数据库，因为它们渴望克服这类问题。本文对目前应用最广泛的关系数据库MySQL和图形数据库Neo4j进行了比较分析。
The relational model has dominated the computer industry since the 1980s mainly for storing and retrieving data. Lately, however, relational database has been losing its importance due to its reliance on a strict schema which makes it difficult to add new relationships between the objects. Another important reason of its failure is that as the available data is growing manifolds, it is becoming complicated to work with relational model as joining a large number of tables is not working efficiently. One of the proposed solutions is to transfer to the Graph databases as they aspire to overcome such type of problems. This paper provides a comparative analysis of a graph database Neo4j with the most widespread relational database MySQL.
