Every relationship has a type, a start node and an end node., paths, rows during query processing. When you aggregate in a Cypher statement, this means that the query must process all Full 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 MATCH clause to complete the aggregation to either return results or perform the next part of the query.
