We are working on fixing a few limitations in the HA solution (see the 1.2 release announcement for details: http://bit.ly/neo4j12) before enabling HA-mode in the server. > > 2.

RemoteGraphDatabase also has severe bugs when using multiple threads in the same client. RemoteGraphDatabase was developed for introspection tools, before the REST server, the recommended way of working with Neo4j was as an embedded database. Building other interfaces to the server (similar to RemoteGraphDatabase) is further down the roadmap. I don't know exactly when yet, those things will be planned in the next few weeks. > > 3.

When using the REST API you send JSON representations describing what you want to traverse. This is then transformed to a TraversalDescription by the server that runs these against its EmbeddedGraphDatabase. -- Tobias Ivarsson <[email protected]> Hacker, Neo Technology www.neotechnology.com Cellphone: +46 706 534857 _______________________________________________ Neo4j mailing list [email protected] https://lists.neo4j.org/mailman/listinfo/user
