From GraphConnect 2013 – A Startup’s Experience: Betting the Company on Neo4j

Aseem Kishore bet his company on Neo4j, and won.

In the startup world there is often little room for error or second guessing. The technology you chose has to work, and it has to work well. With only a little experience using the graph database, Aseem Kishore and his co-founder chose Neo4j to power their social network and recommendation website, Thingdom, and ultimately took Neo to the award-winning iPad app, Paper. In this video from GraphConnect 2013, Aseem shares the lessons he learned at both Thingdom and FiftyThree, listing best practices for startups everywhere.
