Neo4j: The World’s Leading Graph Database

Key benefits

High Performance Queries

A graph data model which enables high performance queries on the complex, connected data inherent in today’s applications. It can traverse complex graphs with improvements of 1000x or more compared to SQL and other NOSQL databases.

Rapid Development

If you can whiteboard, you can design a graph database. The graph data model simplifies application development. Enterprises can quickly capture all kinds of data – structured, semi-structured, and unstructured – and easily store it in Neo4j. This results in shorter development times, lower maintenance costs and higher performance.

Real ACID Transactions

Mature support for transactions so that enterprise developers can execute “all or nothing” transactions. Although this is a must-have for relational databases, none of the other NOSQL databases can do this. Neo4j supports full ACID transactions including XA-compliant distributed two-phase commits.

Java Support

While supporting all of the leading development platforms, (Ruby, Python, Groovy, Gremlin, etc) Neo4j began in Java and will always be easily accessible and available for Java, the most widely used development environment in the enterprise.

Best NOSQL database for Spring

Spring Data Neo4j enables POJO-(Plain Old Java Object) based development for graph databases like Neo4j. For more information go to spring.neo4j.org.
