Learning Cypher: summary, description and annotation
We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Learning Cypher" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.
- Improve performance and robustness when you create, query, and maintain your graph database
- Save time by writing powerful queries using pattern matching
- Step-by-step instructions and practical examples to help you create a Neo4j graph database using Cypher
If you want to learn how to create, query, and maintain a graph database, or want to migrate to a graph database from SQL, this is the book for you.
What You Will Learn- Design and create flexible and fast graph databases using the Cypher declarative syntax
- Write powerful, readable, and reusable queries with pattern matching and parameters
- Develop fast applications using best practices to improve the performance of your Cypher queries
- Transition smoothly from SQL to Neo4j
- Migrate relational databases to the graph model, getting rid of O/R mismatch
- Avoid the common mistakes and pitfalls in programming with Neo4j
Neo4j is generating much interest among NoSQL database users for its features, performance and scalability, and robustness. The software also provides users with a very natural and expressive graph model and ACID transactions with rollbacks. However, utilizing Neo4j in a real-world project can be difficult compared to a traditional relational database. Cypher fills this gap with SQL, providing a declarative syntax and the expressiveness of pattern matching. This relatively simple but powerful language allows you to focus on your domain instead of getting lost in database access. As you will learn in this book, very complicated database queries can easily be expressed through Cypher.
This book is a practical, hands-on guide to designing, implementing, and querying a Neo4j database quickly and painlessly. Through a number of practical examples, this book uncovers all the behaviors that will help you to take advantage of Neo4j effectively, with tips and tricks to help you along the way. The book starts with the basic clauses and patterns to perform read-only queries with Cypher. You will then learn about clauses and tips that can be used with patterns to elaborate results coming from pattern matching. Next, you will master the clauses required to modify a graph. Once you have got these basics right with the help of practical examples, you will then learn about tools and practices to improve the performance of queries and how to migrate a database to Neo4j from the ground up. To finish off, the book covers Cypher operators and functions in detail.

He discovered the wonderful world of graph databases, and especially Neo4j, in late 2012. After he developed a social platform, he quickly saw the benefits of Neo4j and its query language Cypher. Being an early adopter of modules such as Spring Data Neo4j and cypher-dsl, he has made some contributions to the source code as well. He tries to help out as much as he can on topics pertaining to Neo4j and Cypher tags on www.stackoverflow.com. Learning Cypher is the first book that he has reviewed, and he doesn't expect it to be his last one.
Craig Taverner is an open source software developer, technology enthusiast, and entrepreneur working on many projects, especially those that involve Ruby, GIS, and Neo4j. He is the CTO and co-founder of AmanziTel AB, where he helps build really cool telecom statistics platforms.
Having a background in pure science, Craig has spent the last two decades working mostly in the mobile telecom field, where he has applied his analytical skills to help large international operators solve their complex data analysis problems. During this time, he has also contributed to several open source projects, most notably Neo4j Spatial, as well as presented at many conferences, such as FOSS4G 2010 and 2011 and GraphConnect 2012 and 2013.
