Neo4j Data Import and Advanced Cypher Queries

Welcome to the third Graph Databases meetup in Beirut.

In the first part of this meetup we will give a brief introduction to Neo4j and we will be looking into importing data into Neo4j.

In the second part we will dive into the Cypher Query Language to build complex queries that will leverage the true potential of Neo4j.

With hands-on examples, we intend to provide you with the necessary knowledge and experience that will help you shift your datastore to Neo4j.

In case you're new to this sphere of knowledge, I would suggest that you educate yourself a bit about the broad concepts of graph data structures and Neo4j applications and basic use. It is pretty easy to get started: https://neo4j.com/developer/get-started/

This meetup is going to be a hands-on demonstration of the subjects at hand, so if you would like to follow and play along with Neo4j in parallel, you should pre-install Neo4j on your machine and download the dataset we are going to use:

Neo4j: https://neo4j.com/download/

Detroit Crimes database: https://www.dropbox.com/s/4q0qm9sj83wg4ub/Detroit_Crimes.csv?dl=0

The meetup is free of charge and is sponsored by Neo4j.

Be many!
