Neo4j GraphTalk Helsinki - Introduction and Graph Use Cases
This document provides an introduction to graphs and Neo4j. It discusses that Neo4j is a native graph database that allows organizations to leverage connections in data in real-time to create value. It then provides information on Neo4j as a company and as a product, including that it is the world's leading graph database. The document goes on to define what graphs are from a data structure perspective and provides examples of famous graphs like social networks. It discusses why graph databases are useful compared to relational databases for representing complex, connected data and provides examples of use cases for Neo4j like recommendations, fraud detection, and network analysis.

Properties are stored as a linked list of property records, each holding a key and value and pointing to the next property. Each node and relationship references its first property record. The Nodes also reference the first relationship in its relationship chain. Each Relationship references its start and end node. It also references the previous and next relationship record for the start and end node respectively. • Example of a node and its relationship(s) stored on disk:
