Graph Database Concepts
Nodes | Nodes are commonly used to represent entities or things in your data. For example, a Person or Movie |
Relationships | Relationships are used to connect two nodes together and organise the data into structure. For example, a Person acted in a movie. A relationship has a type and direction, although the direction can be ignored at query time. |
Labels | Labels are used to group nodes into categories. For example, a person may have Person and Actor labels. |
Relationship Type | Each relationship has a type. Relationships allow you to explore smaller sections of a graph. |
Properties | Both nodes and relationships can have properties set against them. Properties are name-value pairs. |
