Re: [Neo4j] java application server or neo4j server?
Matej, if you want to just write a Gephi file to the file system, you could do that with a simple plugin that you can trigger. Serving it as a custom XML format would require unmanaged RAXRS extensions, which are a bit more intrusive. Not sure what is best for your case here if you want to run the server ...

Re: [Neo4j] java application server or neo4j server?
Thank you for your answer. So Neo4j server serves mainly for remote access to neo4j database but you don't recommend me to use it like application server, right? And plugins are just for extension funcionality of neo4j server's REST API.

Re: [Neo4j] java application server or neo4j server?
Hi Matěj, Neo4j has traditionally been an embedded database, so if you just want to host it in an existing application (e.g. in a Web app you already run on an app server) then that's probably a good choice. If you need to host the database elsewhere on the network (or you're not running on the JVM) then Neo4j server supports a REST interface through which you can interact with the database. From your email, it sounds like the embedded database might be best for you. Jim ___ Neo4j mailing list User@lists.neo4j.org https://lists.neo4j.org/mailman/listinfo/user
[Neo4j] java application server or neo4j server?
Hi! I'm new in neo4j (and also NonSQL databases). We are developing application which will fetch some information periodically, save it in nodes and edges in neo4j database and then import it to GEXF format to use our data in Gephi. My question is if it's possible to write this application like plugin (write another services) for Neo4j server or better approach is to run it on some application server. I'm probably little bit confused about for what is Neo4j server determined and what all it's possible to do. Thank you for your answers Matej Plch. ___ Neo4j mailing list User@lists.neo4j.org https://lists.neo4j.org/mailman/listinfo/user
