About this Presentation

Neo4j is a NoSQL, graph database built specifically for enterprise Java projects (although you can also use the RESTful API from any language). In this workshop, we'll start by installing neo4j and looking at the the use cases for graph databases. We'll then look at the fundamentals of neo4j - what it is and how it's architected. We will then go through the core neo4j API and then start working with the traverser API to see how to write declarative queries.

Join us for this action packed half day workshop!
