Re: [Neo4j] New Blog post: Strategies for Scaling Neo4j
I think that option #2 also improves write scale, though asymptotically rather than horizontally. In option #2 one of the consistent routing choices you can make is to channel all writes to the master. Then we effectively have a write-master plus read-slaves arrangement which is a reasonable pattern for scale-out. I think Alex said it best that cache sharding is a reasonable interim strategy until such point that graph sharding stops being an impossible problem.

From Neo4j perspective - would there be strategies that would scale well for writes? Just curious.
