This Week in Neo4j – Live Streaming Graphs


For many, livestreaming equals video games on Twitch, but there is so much more going on than just Let’s Plays. This week is filled with a few episodes from our great community so you can watch graph projects being created in front of your eyes. Check them out below!

In addition to the great efforts contributed by the community, we have launched a few regular livestreams ourselves: Going Meta, Neo4j + PHP, Discover Neo4j AuraDB Free, or Neo4j Live, where we feature interesting projects from the graph community. If you are interested in showcasing your graph project, please reach out to me.

Cheers,
Andreas & Alexander

P.S. Currently we have opened the Call for Papers for GraphConnect 2022 and encourage you all to submit – no matter what graph topic is currently top of your mind, we want to hear from you!

Building & Exploring a Music Knowledge Graph

GraphAware

The team around Hume from GraphAware realized that creating a database of their music tastes would be interesting and fun. Having enriched it from different data sources, their data science engineers were able to open almost limitless possibilities for analysis. As a result of the experiment, they built an interesting knowledge graph that can be an exciting experiment for exploring the capabilities of Hume.

Medical Subject Headings Into Neo4j

Knowledge Graph

Tom Nijhof decided in order to make a knowledge graph it is useful to have a vocabulary in place – an ontological. The Medical Subject Headings is one such an ontological, which includes many of the medical terms that are currently being used. In his blog article he reveals how it is done.

Testcontainers Live: Neo4j With Gerrit Meier

Testcontainers

Oleg Selajev talks to Gerrit Meier in this stream about how storing data in a graph database give us the advantage of not only having a nice visualization but also fast query times when it comes to traversing relationships. You will learn how you can import the data yourself, create a Spring Data Neo4j application on top, and issue more advanced queries to find information in the graph.
