A Humane Presentation about Graph Database Internals

Featuring Jim Webber

Databases are everywhere, but did you ever wonder what goes on inside the box? In this talk we’ll dive into the internals of Neo4j - a popular graph database - and see how its designers deal with distributed systems challenges now and in the future. Borrowing heavily from the academic literature,...

Mixing Causal Consistency and Asynchronous Replication for Large Neo4j Clusters

Featuring Jim Webber

In this talk we’ll explore the new Causal clustering architecture for Neo4j. We’ll see how Neo4j uses the Raft protocol for a robust underlay for intensive write operations, and how the asynchronous new scale-out mechanism provides enormous capacity for very demanding graph workloads....

Practical Introduction to Neo4j

Featuring Jim Webber

This workshop is aimed at the people new to Neo4j but curious about what graphs can do for them and their business. In this highly practical session we'll explore what a graph database is and how data modelling works for graphs. We will also touch on a little graph theory and DBMS architecture...

Surfing the Infinite Monkey Theorem for Fun and Profit

Featuring Jim Webber

Running an open source B2B business is a tough gig. Not only can anyone see where the bodies are buried but there’s a constant tension between various stakeholders: OSS enthusiasts, customers, and employees with respect to the software. At Neo4j we see architecture as one possible...

A Little Graph Theory for the Busy Data Scientist

Featuring Jim Webber

In this talk you’ll explore powerful analytic techniques for graph data. Firstly you’ll discover some of the innate properties of (social) graphs from fields like anthropology and sociology. By understanding the forces and tensions within the graph structure and applying some graph theory, you’ll...

Real-Time Fraud Detection with Graphs

Featuring Jim Webber

Finance is awash with data, but much of it is discrete items locked up in silos waiting to be joined up to provide insights. Graph data is different: it's joined by default and oozes domain-specific insight.

Closing Keynote: Impossible is Nothing with Graphs

Featuring Jim Webber

Jim Webber will give the closing keynote at #graphconnect this year.

Overview of Neo4j 2.2

Impossible is Nothing

Featuring Jim Webber

There was a time when crossing oceans was a Herculean effort and humans died from commonplace bacterial infections. But time and technology have moved on making the once seemingly impossible a reality and then a commodity, fuelling our ambition for the next level of impossible feats. In data...
