About this course

In this 1-hour course, you will learn

In this course, you will learn how to integrate Neo4j into your Java projects.

By the end of this course, you will have gained a solid understanding of how to use Neo4j in a Java application to build a practical and robust API. You will be able to use your newfound knowledge to create your own Neo4j-backed applications.

Prerequisites

By taking this course, we assume that you have a working knowledge of Java and how to build applications. We also assume that you have at least a basic knowledge of Neo4j.

If you haven't already done so, we recommend that you also take the Neo4j Fundamentals course in order to gain a basic understanding of Neo4j and the Cypher Fundamentals to understand how to query Neo4j using Full definition for Cypher (opens in a new tab)Neo4j's implementation of GQL, the ISO standard query language for graph databases. It is declarative: you describe the pattern to find, and the database decides how to find it..

  • Driver life cycle

  • Installing and instantiation

  • Read and write transactions

  • Best practices
