As data becomes ubiquitous and deeply interconnected, tracing where who or which system that data comes from – its lineage – will create bigger problems and opportunities for us on the horizon. Watch the recording of James Bowkett talk from NODES 2022 – Neo4j Online Developer Education Summit 202 on ‘Tracing Your Data’s DNA.’

Fahran Wallace and Ebru Cucen’s most recent blog post is part 1 of a three-part series. They investigate how OpenCredo ingested 400 million nodes with a billion relationships into Neo4j.

As part of our work, we often help our customers choose the right datastore for a project. There are usually a number of considerations involved in that process, such as performance, scalability, the expected size of the data set, and the suitability of the data model to the problem at hand.
This blog post is about my experience with graph database technologies, specifically Neo4j. I would like to share some thoughts on when Neo4j is a good fit but also what challenges Neo4j faces now and in the near future.

It’s been more than a year now since I rolled out Neo4j Graph Database Server image in Amazon EC2.
In May 2011 the version of Neo4j was 1.3 and just recently guys at Neo Technology published version 1.7.2 so I thought now is the time to revisit this exercise and make fresh AMIs available.
Last year I created Neo4j AMI manually in one region then copied it across to the remaining AWS regions. Due to the size of the AMI and the latency between regions this process was slow.

In the previous post we compared the performance of fetching relationships from densely populated nodes using Neo4j native store and using lucene index.
We’ve seen that we can fetch the small subset of relationships from a super-node (containing ~1M relationships in total) directly from the Lucene index, the performance of the first run (cold-caches) is better then using the Neo store directly. The subsequent runs with caches warmed up show comparable performance, slightly in favor of direct Neo store fetching, sue to low level cache optimizations.

Neo4J is one of the first graph databases to appear on the global market. Being open source, in addition to its power and simplicity in supporting graph data model it represents good choice for production-ready graph database.
However, there has been one area I have struggled to get good-enough performance from Neo4j recently – super nodes.
