Merge Processing
The actor's name for Michael Caine is misspelled in the video. It has been corrected in the transcript.
You have learned that you can use MERGE to create iFull definition for node (opens in a new tab)A vertex in a graph. In a property graph it can carry labels and properties. and iFull definition for relationship (opens in a new tab)A named, directed connection between two nodes. Every relationship has a type, a start node and an end node. in the graph.
MERGE operations work by first trying to find a iFull definition for pattern (opens in a new tab)A graph structure written in Cypher, such as a node joined to another node by a relationship. in the graph.
If the pattern is found then the data already exists and is not created.
If the pattern is not found, then the data can be created.
