Abstract

Techniques for exploring social connections in an in-memory database include identifying an attribute in a user profile associated with a first user; executing a query against a data element stored in an in-memory database, the query including the attribute in the user profile; identifying a second user from results of the query, the second user associated with the data element based on a relationship between the second user and the first user defined by the attribute; and generating displayable information associated with the second user.
