"This document describes an assessment of the maturity and applicability of graph database technology as a viable materiel solution that reflects the realities of legacy systems, and yet can deliver, for the planned DFS portal, effectively and efficiently the needed at-rest and in-motion force structure products. Specifically, the goal of this phase of the study is to develop objective metrics and scenarios to test the ability of graph databases to represent and generate force structure data products."
