Användbarhet av grafdatabaser i spårbarhetssystem

Abstract

Establishing traceability is a continuous problem in modern distributed development environments. In this report the feasibility of using technology agnostic event-based protocols in tandem with graph databases for establishing automated traceability is evaluated. Two different graph databases are evaluated and two different event-based protocols are discussed. It is concluded that it is possible to establish scalable traceability tracking, but that more research is needed for practical applications and that for the traceability to be useful it is not enough to only store the data but it must also be backed by analytics tools.
