I wouldn't say relational databases are poorly designed, any more than saying a hammer is poorly designed because it makes for a bad screwdriver. A hammer is still excellent at wor…

To propose a different perspective, a relationship in a graph db is like a materialized join. You pay on relationship creation (you might be using index lookups to find the nodes t…

If that were so then there would be no need for native graph databases at all, and we would not be seeing cases that could not be served by relational dbs that are possible with Ne…

Hello, just making sure you're aware that while the Neo4j Sandbox is a quick way to get a feel for Neo4j and try out some tutorials and datasets, it isn't meant to be used as a gen…

The idea is not just to keep the curve low initially and then abandon all measures, but to figure out how to keep the curve consistently low over time until a vaccine or highly eff…

That compares against Neo4j 1.9.4, released in 2013. All technologies in question have improved much since then, especially graph db technology, efficiency, and speed, so I don't t…

Deletes do have an extra cost as relationships do need to be deleted first, and there are some batching approaches for handling this case. For graph databases there's not much choi…

There are of course certain structures you can use to ease the selection of the relationships you want to follow, and Neo4j does use some of its own, breaking down relationships on…
