Neo4j VS Google Test

Neo4j: An ACID-compliant graph database with a high-performance distributed architecture. Ideal for complex relationship and pattern analysis in domains like social networks.

After spending millions fighting the committer of ONgDB who removed the commons clause from the AGPL branded license, it looks like the Free Software Foundation got involved and forced them to remove the commons clause or change the license to their own proprietary license.

The GenAI Stack came about through a collaboration between Docker, Neo4j, LangChain, and Ollama. The goal of the collaboration was to create a pre-built GenAI stack of best-in-class technologies that are well integrated, come with sample applications, and make it easy for developers to get up and running.

Neo4j (GraphQL)

NoSQL is a term that we have become very familiar with in recent times and it is used to describe a set of databases that don't make use of SQL when writing & composing queries. There are loads of different types of NoSQL databases ranging from key-value databases like the Reddis to document-oriented databases like MongoDB and Firestore to graph databases like Neo4J to multi-paradigm databases like FaunaDB and Cassandra.

this thread on this github issue could be useful.

Recently I have taken an interest in big data. https://neo4j.com/ , https://cassandra.apache.org/ , https://clickhouse.com/, https://www.elastic.co/ - are all databases I have experience with. Neo4j and Cassandra only as a hobby, but Clickhouse I have used in production, and Elasticsearch I have used for some 7 years now.

For organizations and their applications that are designed to detect fraud, like International Consortium of Investigative Journalists, or try to improve customer experience via personalization, as in the case of Tourism Media, a NoSQL graph database like Neo4j is a good match. In these kinds of use cases, the quantity of data we're dealing with is enormous, and the pattern we're searching for in the data is often complex.

First, you need to choose a specific graph database platform to work with, such as Neo4j, OrientDB, JanusGraph, Arangodb or Amazon Neptune. Once you have selected a platform, you can then start working with graph data using the platform's query language.

Welcome to the world of graph databases! When it comes to modelling complex and highly connected data, graph databases have proven to be an efficient and intuitive solution. And one of the most popular graph databases out there is Neo4j, which uses a query language called Cypher.

Okay, time to start unit tests!!! We will use Unity Test Framework to do unit testing. It is one of widely used testing frameworks alongside with Check, Google Test etc. Just downloading source code, and putting it to the project folder is enough to make it work (that is also why it is portable).

Updating GCC (it happened to GoogleTest).

Roy's project uses Google Test, a C++ testing framework. His testing setup is similar to mine as we both keep source files in one directory and tests in another. The key difference is that I can run the tests using the Visual Studios run button. It was fairly easy to write the new tests as there were existing ones that I could reference to check the syntax!

The Google Test Documentation provides a primer for first-time users. The primer introduces some basic concepts and terminology, some of which I've been able to learn for this lab exercise.

Not sure about CppUnit but I can speak to my previous experience using the googletest framework which compiles your tests to an executable, and since it's a very simple framework we were able to cross-compile and run directly on our device. We just had to hook up a device to the server that was running the CI so it could flash it when needed. That basically meant that our process was:
