Neo4j introduces new graph architecture that allows operational and analytics workloads to be run together

The graph database company Neo4j today announced Infinigraph, a new distributed graph architecture that allows Neo4j’s database to run both operational and analytical workloads in one system.

According to the company, silos often keep these workloads separate, leading AI applications to suffer, decision-making to be delayed, and costs to increase as a result of complex integration. Currently, some of the workarounds companies go through to bring these workloads together include having one database and one copy of data, one database and two engines (column-based and row-based), or having two or more synchronized databases.

“Infinigraph eliminates the need for these workarounds. It enables organizations to run both analytical and transactional workloads in the same system, at unprecedented scale, while avoiding ETL pipelines, sync delays, and redundant infrastructure,” the company wrote in a blog post.

Some examples of use cases that Infinigraph unlocks include the ability to detect fraud and analyze fraud rings from a single dataset or generate customer recommendations based on decades of customer data and behavioral trends. It also provides a single source of truth for generative AI assistants, compliance systems, and transactional applications.

It utilizes property sharding to ensure that the graph remains logically whole, so that queries behave in an expected way and applications can scale without needing to be rewritten. It also leverages autonomous clustering to detect and recover from failures, ensuring high availability.

It can scale to 100TB+, offers full ACID compliance, preserves graph structure for traversal, and allows billions of vectors to be embedded directly in the graph.

“Infinigraph sets a new standard for enterprise graph databases: one system that runs real-time operations and deep analytics together, at full fidelity and massive scale,” said Sudhir Hasbe, president of technology at Neo4j. “We’re giving builders the power to create intelligent systems that transform data into knowledge, scale without limits, and solve their biggest data challenges – without added complexity or cost.”

Infinigraph is available now in the company’s self-managed offering, and will be added to its cloud offering Neo4j AuraDB soon.

The company announced a few new updates to AuraDB as well, including property-based access control, the ability to run multiple databases in a single instance, an AI-powered dashboard generator, and the ability to scale storage independently from memory and compute.

According to the company, these latest features will make graph databases more secure, cost-effective, and accessible to people who aren’t database experts.

2022: The year of hybrid work

Remote work was once considered a luxury to many, but in 2020, it became a necessity for a large portion of the workforce, as the scary and unknown COVID-19 virus sickened and even took the lives of so many people around the world.  Some workers were able to thrive in a remote setting, while others felt isolated and struggled to keep up a balance between their work and home lives. Last year saw the availability of life-saving vaccines, so companies were able to start having the conversation about what to do next. Should they keep everyone remote? Should they go back to working in the office full time? Or should they do something in between? Enter hybrid work, which offers a mix of the two. A Fall 2021 study conducted by Google revealed that over 75% of survey respondents expect hybrid work to become a standard practice within their organization within the next three years.  Thus, two years after the world abruptly shifted to widespread adoption of remote work, we are dec...
