This Week in Neo4j: Cypher Queries, IKEA Knowledge Graph, Linkedln Course, and More

This week we’re featuring a post by biomedical engineer Tom Nijhof, who explains how his performance issues were solved by using Cypher query parameters. This allows for the query plan to be cached and reused. An important step along the way was to batch the writes using Cypher’s Unwind feature in order to expand a list, replacing the Python for loop in his code.

The biggest graph technology event of the year, NODES 2022, is back November 16 and 17, 2022! We are honored to welcome as speakers: Ward Cunningham, the creator of Wiki; Ashleigh Faith, host of IsA DataThing YouTube channel; Rhys Evans from The Financial Times; and Kateryna Nesvit, Visiting Professor, Data Science at Marymount University. These are just four of this year’s 90+ speakers. Save your spot.
