(more…)ArangoBNB Data Preparation Case Study: Optimizing for Efficiency
Estimated reading time: 18 minutes
This case study covers a data exploration and analysis scenario about modeling data when migrating to ArangoDB. The topics covered in this case study include:
- Importing data into ArangoDB
- Developing Application Requirements before modeling
- Data Analysis and Exploration with AQL
This case study can hopefully be used as a guide as it shows step-by-step instructions and discusses the motivations in exploring and transforming data in preparation for a real-world application.
The information contained in this case study is derived from the development of the ArangoBnB project; a community project developed in JavaScript that is always open to new contributors. The project is an Airbnb clone with a Vue frontend and a React frontend being developed in parallel by the community. It is not necessary to download the project or be familiar with JavaScript for this guide. To see how we are using the data in a real-world project, check out the repository.
