Hi there, After working on spring data graph for a while now, I'm happy that the M1 finally made its way into the public.
For all the spring developers that would like to map the domain objects to a graph database this is certainly something to take a look at. We're really interested in your feedback on this approach. So feel free to post any questions on how to use DATAGRAPH. You can find the source here: http://github.com/SpringSource/spring-data-graph And examples here: http://github.com/SpringSource/spring-data-graph-examples Reference Docs: http://static.springsource.org/spring-data/data-graph/docs/1.0.0.M1/reference/html/ Spring-Data Homepage: http://www.springsource.org/spring-data As a teaser - your domain entity could look like this and be backed by the graph: @NodeEntity public class Person { @Indexed private String name; private int age; private Person spouse; // this is backed by an relationship @RelatedTo(type = "mother", direction = Direction.OUTGOING) private Person mother; // this is backed by an relationship @RelatedToVia(type = "knows", elementClass = Friendship.class) private Iterable<Friendship> friendships; // this provides access to relationship entities for this relationship-type } Thanks Michael Quoting the announcement email from the springsource mailing lists: Hi everyone, I'm happy to finally announce the first milestone release of Spring Data Graph 1.0 project with Neo4j support. Though only an M1, the project provides: * Simplified annotation driven programming model for Neo4j applications * Strategy to handle representation of java types in the graph * AspectJ ITD backed field mapping for plain Java objects * Annotations for graph persistence * Support for building traversal descriptions * Support for cross-store persistence including basic transaction support * Abstract configuration class and reference documentation.
