Neo4j Fundamentals

Neo4j is a graph database built around the property graph model. You store domain entities as nodes and meaningful connections between them as relationships. Nodes and relationships can carry properties.

This model is useful when a question depends on how things connect. A service catalog can follow dependencies. An investigation can inspect transfers between accounts. A recommendation feature can find related people, products, and interactions. In each case, the relationship is data you query.

Neo4j is a database product and ecosystem, not only a data model. Its documentation covers tools for modeling, importing, visualization, application drivers, and graph data science. Cypher is Neo4j's declarative query language for expressing graph patterns.
