University HD Research Paper - PostgreSQL vs Neo4j with public transport datasets

Oct 2024

As part of the object oriented programming unit at Swinburne University, I tested 2 database management systems do determine whether Neo4j database would be more effective than PostgreSQL at storing public transport data. Due to significant time constraints, the testing is limited and should most certainly be re-done to include simply more data than what was tested. But, I'm still really proud of the end result and I wish to come back to it at some point in the future where I don't only have ~2 days to work on it.
