Summary

The Neo4j team has released the first milestone of their upcoming version 2.1, which focuses on productivity and performance improvements. The new release introduces support for CSV import directly in Cypher query language, making it easier to load large amounts of existing data into Neo4j. This feature allows users to treat every line as a collection, treating each line faster. Additionally, the team has improved navigation for densely connected nodes by changing the way relationships are stored in Neo4j, allowing queries to be much faster for common cases. The new store format supports partitioning relationships incident on a node by type and direction, enabling users to take advantage of this feature without modifying their code. However, milestone releases are not recommended for production use and may have incomplete features.
