Javier, thanks for the feedback! There is a strong desire for having some graph visualization in the Neo4j Admin console, so - if you think it is interesting, I think there might be a strong case for the projects working together on the visualization component. I don't have the timeframe laid out

Very very cool Javier! Is this built using the Neo4j Python bindings or pure REST? Also, is there a public website available to refer to? Another question - regarding visualisation, what was your experience of the best performing lib for JavaScript out there regarding large amount of nodes and re

Hi, everybody, I work in a lab at University of Western Ontario, with humanists people. The needs of the humanist research make useless the current SQL databases because it's hard to change the schemas or build queries with several JOINs. So, we are developing a system which mixes a relational dat

Kalin (and list), My lab project for a few weeks now has been an alternative shell to Neo4j. Coming from a DBA background, I felt that we are lacking tools to do DBA-work - import/export data, tune indexes, browse the data in an easy way, and make backups. So that's been the focus for my shell.

Peter, Those are certainly viable alternatives (need to investigate further), but most involve learning another language/interface or working at the command line or within a script. The ubiquity of SQL access to a database is a big factor when considering migration. One of my teammates is much b

Kalin, I think the different shell access possibilities are good candidates for fast integration. You have at least Neo4j Shell, distributed with Neo4j downloads, see http://wiki.neo4j.org/content/Getting_Started_with_Neo4j_Server#Enter_the_Shell JRuby scripts, see http://neo4j.rubyforge.org/ and

I'm currently prototyping an application that will use both a RDBMS and Neo4j in parallel. The RDBMS currently exists as the backing store for a web application. While it's feasible to move all of the data into Neo4j, that's not politically palatable right now. So I plan to use Neo4j to store de
