What is a Network?
A Network is a representation for modeling
objects of interest and their relationships. It
usually contains the following elements:
• Nodes: objects of interests
• Links: relationship between nodes
• Paths: an ordered list of connected links
What is Oracle Network Data Model?
• An open, generic and simple modeling and
analysis platform for network applications
• Manage network information in the database
• Analyze network information in the client or
application tier
• Includes support for spatial information
• Allows hierarchical modeling of networks

"Oracle 10g's Network Data Model feature is great for
building a semantic work infrastructure. Oracle 10g's
graphical representation is an excellent tool for
planning our Y2H protein interaction data storage
needs and for building a signaling network from our
Nature-AfCS Molecule Pages Database." - Joshua Li,
Sr. Computational Scientist, San Diego

"Beyond Genomics, Inc., as a leading systems biology
company, believes that Oracle 10g's Network Data
Model will significantly advance the integration of
metabolomic, proteomic, transcriptomic, and clinical
data sets and the applications that derive value from
these data." – Eric Neumann, Vice President Strategic
