Modeling power system data using NoSQL database

Abstract

© 2017 IEEE. Due to the rapid growth of IT technology and scientific/technological advances, the amount of the data to be stored is constantly increasing. Managing and analyzing such large amount of highly interconnected data imposes new ways of modeling the data. Representing data as a graph structure proved to be the most adequate method for modeling big data models. The dominance of graphs in real-world applications asks for new graph data management so that users can access graph data effectively and efficiently. In this paper, modeling and managing power system data as a large graph using Neo4j graph database is presented.
