Analysis of film data based on Neo4j

Abstract

Film data analysis is important for website to find relationship between film data. Other than normal relational database, a novel and popular graph database, Neo4j uses graph related concepts to describe data models, the data can easily be nodes, edges and their associated attributes. By focusing on film data, Neo4j-based analysis is conducted in this paper. Firstly, Neo4j and Cypher Query Language are introduced. Then Neo4j is applied to analyze the associations among key objects in film data which are directors, actors etc. Neo4j database is good at dealing with complex and multi-connection data, using Neo4j database to store and manage film data makes it convenient for film data analysis.
