Abstract

We describe a Big Data-practical, SQL-implementable algorithm for efficiently determining connected components for graph data stored in a Massively Parallel Processing (MPP) relational database. The algorithm described is a linear-space, randomised algorithm, always terminating with the correct answer but subject to a stochastic running time, such that for any ϵ>0 and any input graph G = (V, E) the algorithm terminates after O(log|V |) SQL queries with probability of at least, which we show empirically to translate to a quasi-linear runtime in practice.
