Aspire     Graph Analytics     Graph Analytics Track 2: Graph Analytics with Neo4j
This course delves into the fundamentals of graph data modeling from a theoretical standpoint before applying some of the principles to a Neo4j database.
Begin with an overview of data modeling in general and then graph modeling in particular. Learn to recognize the similarities in modeling for relational, document, and graph databases and identify how their approaches vary. Next, in the practical portion of the course, build a database with different entity types and multiple relationship types. Explore the use of properties, labels, and relationships to model your data correctly for efficient query execution.
Finally, delve into translating a CSV file containing a many-to-one relationship between entity types into a graph database and discover how to translate a tabular structure like a CSV file into a graph structure for Neo4j.
