About this speaker
Prashanth is very interested in preparing educational material that can help developers leverage graphs and graph databases in their workflows. He has been working with a variety of data models and database technologies in his past roles as a data scientist and AI/data engineer, and in his work, he has come to realize the benefits of the graph data model in scenarios that can benefit from it. However, it's sometimes unclear to developers who may be already using other databases, as to when a graph model is beneficial. He aims to prepare a detailed workshop for a broader audience on the topic of Cypher vs. SQL toward this end, and he's excited to participate in CDL24 and engage with a motivated audience!
