Hello,

We are currently moving out of PostgreSQL to AuraDB as we have a good part of the data model of our Saas platform that are represented as graphs.

Those data are logically well segregated by “dataroom”: queries and transactions always concerns a single dataroom. In that context, we are thinking about having a dedicated database for each of them: it would give us easy ways to import / export / backup dataroom, and allow us not to add a “dataroom" uuid” to every single node, with index.

However, we are wondering what is the infrastructure costs and ability for AuraDB to support thousands of “small” databases ? What are the logical limits and what’s the reality about them as of today ?

In case you advice not to create separate DB for each dataroom, what would be your recommendation to segregate data inside a database to, for instance, run a query that start from a type of nodes, but within a given dataroom ?

Thanks for your help !

Syméon

So glad you have joined the community! This is a great question. We should hopefully have some of our member chime in soon, and I will see if there is anyone internally who could also provide some insight. Which edition of Neo4j are you to?

Thanks @Ari_Neo4j !

This is more a global question that should help us designing the database structure and data model, and what edition of Neo4J we should use.

As far as I understood, the Professional edition of AuraDB doesn’t support multi-database, only the Enterprise one ?

Hi @symeon1  
We are in private (early access) preview for MultiDB on Aura in the AuraDB Virtual Dedicated Cloud and Business Critical tiers at this point, working towards a more public preview, and then GA for for those tiers later this year. Although AuraDB Professional is not the focus right now, I’d be happy to chat to you about viability and whether Business Critical may be a suitable option in 2026. I’ll send you a direct message now, and we can take it from there.  
Thanks
