Welcome to This Week in Neo4j, your weekly fix for news from the world of graph databases!
In this episode, our CTO, Philip Rathle, is interviewed to discuss GraphRAG and GQL. Additionally, we create Knowledge Graphs from Texts and Images, learn how to turn a Relational Database into a Graph Database and look at a tool to make working with Neo4j a bit easier.
<!–
For Graph Database Beginners, I picked the Cypher Aggregations course this week. This one is a bit more advanced, but if you followed this segment for a while, I am sure you can do it!

INTERVIEW: Neo4j’s Philip Rathle on the Rise of GraphRAG and GQL
Ben Lorica interviews Philip Rathle, Neo4j’s CTO, to discuss the rising popularity of graph-enhanced retrieval augmented generation (GraphRAG). He shares real-world examples of companies using Graph RAG in production for applications like enterprise search, supply chain risk analysis, and criminal investigations. They also talk about the potential impact of the new GQL graph query language standard.
KNOWLEDGE GRAPH: End To End Multimodal Knowledge Graph Creation from Texts and Images & Querying in Natural Language using LangChain and Neo4j
This blog post by Shubham Shardul explores a method that leverages OpenAI’s Large Language Models (LLMs) and Google’s Generative Model, Gemini, to automatically generate knowledge graphs from textual and visual data. He also discusses interacting with the constructed knowledge graph using natural language queries.
PYTHON: Turning Your Relational Database into a Graph Database
In this tutorial, Katia Gil Guzman guides you through transforming your relational database into a dynamic graph database in Python. Using the Amazon Products Dataset as an example, extract entities from the products’ titles to enrich the dataset and turn it into a graph. This can be achieved using OpenAI’s GPT model and then loading the data into Neo4j.
ANANSI: Enterprise Wrapper for Neo4j/
Anansi is built on top of the Neo4j Graph DB. It is specially designed for enterprises looking to streamline their Neo4j experience. Common tasks like node creation, relationship management, or data import become easy, allowing users to use the power of Neo4j without worrying about its syntax and other nuances.
