Graph databases are popular for social networks, recommendation engines, fraud detection, inventory management and more. Titan is designed to efficiently store and traverse massive graphs containing even hundreds of billions of vertices and edges. DynamoDB lets you offload Titan storage management to AWS. This re:Invent 2015 session introduces graph databases and describes how Amazon’s fulfillment network is using the DynamoDB Storage Backend for Titan to power the company’s massive fulfillment infrastructure.
