The Fastest Path to Graph
Battle tested for performance, Neo4j is the only enterprise-strength graph database that combines native graph storage, scalable speed-optimized architecture, and ACID compliance.
The high-performance distributed cluster architecture of Neo4j enables the most challenging OLTP and data science workloads.
With Neo4j, you can choose from multiple cloud options – self-hosted, hybrid, multi-cloud, or our fully managed cloud service, Neo4j Aura.

Key strategies to scale with evolving graph usage and data complexity.
Graph-Native Scale
Neo4j's high-performance distributed cluster architecture scales with your data needs, minimizing cost and hardware while maximizing performance across connected datasets.
With graph native scale you get robust transactional guarantee, performance across billions of nodes, trillions of relationships with millisecond response time and unlimited elasticity. Relationship chain locking – a new feature introduced in Neo4j 4.3 – provides fine-grained locking so that relationships and nodes can be created/updated/deleted concurrently without causing contention, even when nodes have tens or millions of adjacent relationships. This means you can now achieve faster transaction throughput and faster data import.

1000x Performance Advantage
Applications need to scale up and out to handle higher data volumes, while also maintaining data integrity and higher performance across a growing diversity of on-premises, hybrid, and cloud architectures.
With Neo4j, you get reliably fast transactions with ultra-high parallelized throughput, thanks to index-free adjacency that shortens read time and gets even better as data complexity increases.

Fine-Grained Security
Neo4j enforces rigorous enterprise security rules while remaining easy to deploy and manage. Protections like “row-level” security in relational databases are not enough when using graphs. Organizations need fine-grained access control for mission-critical security and privacy.

Schema-Based Security
The structure of the relationships and nodes in a graph are themselves protected information. Schema-based security makes it easy to enforce a deeper level of protection, whether you have multiple on-premise graph databases or an enormous graph sharded across multiple cloud repositories around the world.
Role-Based Access Control
Neo4j offers granular security down to individual objects and their properties. With a role-based access control approach, you can restrict access at any level of granularity, and these controls cascade downwards throughout the database, simplifying the task of assigning permissions.
Data Privacy
Neo4j's multi-database capabilities make it easier for organizations to adhere to privacy and security regulations by building security into the database. Rather than tasking developers with security, developers write applications against a scalable and security-conscious Neo4j backend.
Streamlined Development
Neo4j is designed with flexibility in mind to help meet the evolving needs of your applications, and includes options to run in any cloud environment. Neo4j also offers developer control, robust data pipelines, and modern reactive architecture.
Operational Flexibility
Today’s agile, test-driven development practices demand that applications evolve with changing business requirements. Neo4j provides extremely flexible data models, and constantly improving SLAs for backup and recovery timeframes, operability, and high availability.

Designed for the Cloud
Neo4j runs on-premises and natively on any cloud platform. Server-side Routing – a new feature introduced in Neo4j 4.3 – simplifies setup with load balancers, orchestration platforms like Kubernetes, application stacks like GRANDstack, and client tools like Bloom and Browser.

Developer Friendly
Neo4j empowers developers by providing them with full control over how their applications interact with the database, including robust data pipelines, streaming data, machine learning, and more. Neo4j’s responsive, resilient, elastic, and message-driven reactive architecture delivers maximum scalability and performance.
