Intermediate Nodes

You sometimes find cases where you need to connect more data to a relationshipA named, directed connection between two nodes. Every relationship has a type, a start node and an end node. than can be fully captured in the propertiesA named value stored on a node or a relationship.. In other words, you want a relationship that connects more than two nodesA vertex in a graph. In a property graph it can carry labels and properties.. Mathematics allows this, with the concept of a hyperedge. A solution to hyperedges in Neo4j is to create intermediate nodes.

You create intermediate nodes when you need to:
