Description: Neo4j is a graph database management system. This technology is designed to optimize management, storage, and the traversal of nodes and their relationships. Neo4j classifies data as either an edge, node, or attribute, where each node and edge can have any number of attributes. Both the nodes and edges may be labeled to narrow data searches. Neo4j supports real-time recommendations, network diagrams, graph-based searches of digital assets, fraud detection, and access management.

This technology is available in two solutions, hosted cloud and on-premise. This entry covers on-premise only.

This technology is available in three editions, Community, Professional and Enterprise. Neo4j Community is a free, open source, edition, while Professional and Enterprise offers additional availability features and technical support. This entry covers all 3 editions.

The TRM decisions in this entry only apply to technologies and versions owned, operated, managed, patched, and version-controlled by VA. This includes technologies deployed as software installations on VMs within VA-controlled cloud environments (e.g. VA Enterprise Cloud (VAEC)). Cloud services provided by the VAEC, which are listed in the VAEC Service Catalog, and those controlled and managed by an external Cloud Service Provider (i.e. SaaS) are not in the purview of the TRM. For more information on the use of cloud services and cloud-based products within VA, including VA private clouds, please see the Enterprise Cloud Solutions Office (ECSO) Portal at: https://dvagov.sharepoint.com/sites/OITECSO
