Amazon Neptune is a fast, reliable, fully managed graph database service that makes it easy to build and run applications that work with highly connected datasets. The core of Amazon Neptune is a purpose-built, high-performance graph database engine optimized for storing billions of relationships and querying the graph with milliseconds latency.
Amazon Neptune has the following capabilities:
- Supports popular graph models Property Graph and W3C RDF, and their respective query languages Apache TinkerPop Gremlin and SPARQL.
- Powers graph use cases such as recommendation engines, fraud detection, knowledge graphs, drug discovery, and network security.
Use the AWS public cloud integration to discover and collect metrics against the AWS service.
