property graph

The Full definition for data model (opens in a new tab)The labels, relationship types and properties chosen to represent a domain. Neo4j implements, in which Full definition for node (opens in a new tab)A vertex in a graph. In a property graph it can carry labels and properties. and Full definition for relationship (opens in a new tab)A named, directed connection between two nodes. Every relationship has a type, a start node and an end node. both carry Full definition for property (opens in a new tab)A named value stored on a node or a relationship. as well as Full definition for label (opens in a new tab)A tag on a node that groups it with other nodes of the same kind. A node can carry more than one. and types.

Example

Tom Hanks acted in Toy Story, and John Lasseter directed it.

The (:Person) node carries a born property alongside its label. The [:ACTED_IN] relationship carries a role property alongside its type. [:DIRECTED] carries no properties at all, which is allowed; going without a type is not.
