Summary

We are pleased to announce that Structr has completed its transition to Cypher and Bolt protocol, allowing for significant performance improvements and enhanced features. The new version, Structr 2.1, is now running on Neo4j 3.0 using the Bolt driver, providing a faster and more efficient experience for users. This update was necessary due to the evolution of the Cypher query language, which presented challenges in maintaining complex queries with multiple indexes. The new implementation uses a single internal index implementation that translates Structr's object-oriented search attribute trees into Cypher statements, taking advantage of advanced features like inheritance-aware queries and geospatial queries. Additionally, this update enables seamless connection to local and remote databases, offering greater flexibility for users.
