Entity/Relationship Graphs: Principled Design, Modeling, and Data Integrity Management of Graph Databases
Summary: Presents E/R graphs as PG-Schema core, unifying E/R diagrams with property graphs to guarantee integrity and reduce redundancy. Introduces E/R keys and E/R links to enforce entity integrity; TPC-H tests compare approaches and show efficient query performance. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
