Chapter 7. GraphFrames
Graphs are an interesting way to solve data problems because graph structures are a more intuitive approach to many classes of data problems.
In this chapter, you will learn about:
- Why use graphs?
- Understanding the classic graph problem: the flights dataset
- Understanding the graph vertices and edges
- Simple queries
- Using motif finding
- Using breadth first search
