Why Graphs for Agent Memory

In the previous lesson, you learned that all three memory layers live in a single Neo4j graph. You might ask: why Neo4j? Why not a vector database, a relational database, or a document store?

In this lesson, you will learn why graphs are the correct architecture for agent memory — and why the reasoning is different at each memory layer: short-term, long-term, and reasoning memory.
