This course teaches how to use Asami, an open-source graph database, to turn JSON files into graphs in just 2 lines of Clojure code. The course covers the architecture of Asami, its unique features, and how it enables novel graph analysis operations. Participants will learn about graph databases, graph theory, data representation, querying, and storing data durably. The teaching method involves a mix of theory and practical examples, with a focus on hands-on coding. This course is intended for developers familiar with Clojure who are interested in working with graph databases and exploring novel data storage and querying techniques.
