Neo Technology has gained several new customers in the telecommunications industry including Cisco, M800, Deutsche Telekom, and Telenor Group. The company states, “These customer endorsements show that Neo4j, the world’s leading graph database, is proving to be successful in solving some of the most critical, connected, telecommunications data issues. As data explodes in volume and complexity, many systems have difficulty handling sophisticated queries while achieving high performance results. Neo4j is the industry’s only NOSQL database designed to solve complex, connected data challenges.”
The article notes, “Cisco selected Neo4j as its database of choice when setting out to build its next-generation master data management platform. According to Cisco, Neo4j outperformed Oracle RAC by orders of magnitude for its ability to store and query interconnected tree structures and execute complex validation logic in real time.”
Emil Eifrem, CEO of Neo Technology stated, “We’ve seen firsthand that Telcos are supplementing traditional relational databases because they are not effective for managing relationships between millions of subscribers with multiple connections. At the same time, they are gravitating to Neo4j because, simply put, graph databases are the ideal solution for any application that relies on the relationships between records. Our customers tell us that Neo4j is the natural choice when it comes to managing and storing connected data.”
