Neo4j 5.25 database feature updates for Aura

Kernel

  • Improve upload performance of Azure files through neo4j-admin database upload. 
  • Increase Azure uploads timeout. 
  • Improve Azure upload failure handling to avoid cases in which it would hang indefinitely. 

Language & Graph Model

  • The Parallel Runtime can now be requested (CYPHER runtime = parallel) on any Aura Professional and Enterprise instance larger than 1Gi –  removing the previous requirement for 3 or more CPUs. 
  • The Parallel Runtime default configuration has been updated to allow its workers to use all available CPUs.  For details, please see Cypher Manual – Parallel Runtime.
