Neo Technology, a Swedish company, has expanded its global presence by welcoming Singaporean developers to its Neo4j community. This move is significant as it reflects growing interest in graph databases among academic circles and the wider developer ecosystem, particularly around the Internet of Things (IoT) and smart cities. To facilitate this growth, Neo Technology has established a meetup group and online resources, including LinkedIn groups, Facebook groups, and a dedicated Facebook group for local discussions. Additionally, 1degreenorth, an official Neo4j partner in Singapore, is providing support and resources to developers, including a self-service web portal for accessing HPC-BDA infrastructure. This initiative will launch in the first quarter of 2016 and is open to Singapore-based companies and government agencies looking to start proof-of-concept projects using big data analytics.
