GraphStuff.FM Podcast: Will It Graph? Identifying A Good Fit For Graph Databases

How do you know when the application you’re building is a good fit for a graph database? How do graph databases work under the hood and how is this different from relational databases? What use cases are NOT a good fit for a graph database?

Join Lju and Will as we answer these questions, exploring how the graph native architecture of Neo4j lends itself to solving graphy problems and how to identify a graph-shaped problem.
