Hi, I am very new to Neo4j and curious to know whether one can store tree of objects in the database. Just for sake of brevity, in our context it (the database) will be storing a tree of inter-connected services deployed on an infrastructure. As the services are deployed on the servers/hosting

Hi Wolfgang, Neo4j is a good fit for this kind of domain. There are people on this list who (confidentiality permitting) may vouch that using Neo4j to manage infrastructure deployments is quite sensible. In my mind the key benefit is rapidly being able to traverse the tree for fault finding

Hi Stefan, These are good points, and I don't think we have yet reached a mature level of best practice as the relational folks have. But I don't think graph modelling is too hard. I have a couple of rules of thumb: 1. Model entities as entities and use relationships to describe how those
