Graph Analytics with Neo4j: Administering a Neo4j Database
Lesson Objectives
Graph Analytics with Neo4j: Administering a Neo4j Database
- discover the key concepts covered in this course
- recognize how data can be grouped in projects, database management systems, and databases
- manage the properties of a Neo4j database management system (DBMS) including log files and their locations, plugins, and admin credentials
- use the Cypher shell to create and manage databases in a DBMS
- create query parameters and execute Cypher queries from the Cypher shell
- configure the settings of a Neo4j DBMS by editing the settings file
- enable and disable HTTP communication with a Neo4j DBMS and configure the communication ports
- summarize the key concepts covered in this course
Overview/Description
Understanding the fundamental administration tasks for a Neo4j database is useful for administrators learning about this graph DB as well as developers who use it in their own environments. Begin by learning the very basics of setting up a graph database - creating a project which serves as a logical grouping of database management systems (DBMS). Create locally stored database systems and discover how to connect to a remotely hosted one using Neo4j Desktop. Moving on, use the Cypher shell to interact with a Neo4j database and use this to manage a database system and perform tasks such as taking a database offline, creating parameters for queries, and running Cypher queries. Finally, learn how to modify the configuration file for a Neo4j database management system, where you explore options such as limiting the number of databases in a DBMS and also modifying the HTTP connection settings. Upon completion, you'll be able to use the Neo4j Desktop, Neo4j Browser, and the Cypher shell to perform key database administration tasks.

Graph Analytics with Neo4j: An Introduction to Graph Databases & Neo4j
- discover the key concepts covered in this course
- describe the structure and components of a graph
- recognize the different types of graphs based on the relationships between the nodes
- compare and contrast graph databases and relational data structures
- describe the properties and features of the Neo4j graph database
- set up Neo4j Desktop on your machine
- create a database management system from a dump file in Neo4j Desktop
- recognize the features including supporting apps which are available when using Neo4j Desktop
- describe how nodes and relationships are rendered when queries are run against a Neo4j database
- use the Neo4j Browser to run simple queries using the Cypher query language
- search for nodes in a Neo4j database based on a pattern of relationships between the nodes
- access a hosted database on a remote server from your local Neo4j Desktop
- view the documentation for various Neo4j commands and Cypher queries using the help feature
- summarize the key concepts covered in this course
Overview/Description
This course serves as a quick introduction to the concepts around graph databases, their use cases, and gives you a glimpse into the Neo4j graph database. Explore a theoretical overview of graphs, including how information is stored as nodes and edges, and how graph databases emphasize the connections between entities. Learn about a specific graph database, Neo4j, which is among the most mature and widely used out in the market. Practice the installation and setup of such a database, and look into the UI-based applications available to interact with it - namely the Neo4j Desktop and Neo4j browser. Moving on, examine some basic database administration tasks such as creating a local database and connecting to a remotely hosted one. Finally, delve into the fundamentals of querying a Neo4j database using its own Cypher query language. Upon completion you'll be able to recognize the strengths and use cases for graph databases and to set up and use Neo4j Desktop

Lesson Objectives
Graph Analytics with Neo4j: Managing Databases with the Neo4j Browser
- discover the key concepts covered in this course
- use the Neo4j browser to create a new user and assign a built-in role to it
- recognize how frequently-run queries can be saved and organized from the Neo4j browser
- analyze Cypher query results using a variety of different views
- submit queries to a Neo4j database using the HTTP API
- summarize the key concepts covered in this course
Overview/Description
Knowing how to perform a variety of database management tasks from the Neo4j Browser allows database administrators to make best use of the available features and to maximize productivity. Begin with learning about the fundamental administration tasks of creating a new user with a specific set of permissions on a database system and testing that user's permissions. Discover the various built-in roles available for a Neo4j user and how to manage a user during their lifecycle. Moving on, explore the different ways in which query results can be viewed, from a graph view where the nodes and relationships are clearly visible, to a tabular and plain text view of the data. Finally, test out the Neo4j API by submitting an HTTP POST request to initialize a transaction for the creation of a node, and then commit that transaction. By completing this course, you'll explore the various granular details which can be configured in the Neo4j Browser to customize it for your own requirements.
