an introduction to neo4j (graph database tutorial for beginners)

this tutorial gets you started with neo4j from installation to building your own graph databases. this starts from installing neo4j with docker (even on an apple silicon m1) and then building a graph database in neo4j using CYPHER to create nodes, relationships, labels and properties. finally i bring it altogether with a software supply chain example in graph in neo4j.

this tutorial is suitable for beginners who want to create their own graph db in neo4j from scratch

I watched this as a reminder for graphs that I knew so well. I have found graphs to be helpful in the HR and GIS industries. I once loaded our HR database as a graph and was able to query silly things like, "Which employees have the same first name as another employee up the chain of command? Show those employees and how they're connected." I also combined HR data and IT data to find applications that some people in a division had access to, that other people in that division didn't have access to. I used GIS graphs to traverse manholes and sewer lines, and hope to use graphs for even more stuff.

The kind of hand holding I need now to get comfortable with the graph databases. Amazing video for a beginner like me. Thanks a lot for making this.

Thank you sir. To begin with Neo4j this tutorial is super. !!!

[khim]

watch this today, very useful, thank very much Chris, wish you a nice day

Thanks, great intro. Perhaps the only thing that confused me a bit was calling node labels types. Being completely new to Neo4j and, given the syntax, types made complete sense but then the properties would be connected to the type.

Thank you so much. you clip is concise and gave quick overview information. Great work.

[reubenseyram]

this is great Chris, thanks. Please would you mind doing a series on this. for instance with csv files, and even for node prediction?

[supunthilakshana]

Important note: two-directional relationships is bad practice
Cypher allows you ignore relation direction if you want to, so:
MATCH (neo)-[:PARTNER]-(partner)
and
MATCH (neo)-[:PARTNER]->(partner) and MATCH (neo)<-[:PARTNER]-(partner)
would have same result, meaning you don't have to use two separate relationship

Hello, good video.
Can I attach a PDF document to such a Neo4j or Neo4j Aura DB and will I be able to search and analyze data and information from PDF documents? Please answer
