SystemDB

In Neo4j 4.0 the concept of multi-database was introduced. There’s now a database called system which contains some internal information, e.g. configured permissions. Those can be exposed by APOC.

apoc.systemdb.graph

Do not rely on the data structures within system database. They are a non-public implementation details of Neo4j and might change within minor release updates.
