Hello,

I am facing a use case where i need to store data in lower level then Neo4j.
I hope that this will explain my case: (Node: Task)-----Simulated by------------(Node: Simulation file id).
In this case, should i use RDBMS to store my data ? How can i link RDBMS like MySQL with Neo4j?

Thx !
Anis

In case you want to save files, its better to save it on the filesystem than introduce additional complexity of bridging with an RDBMS.

If you want to link MySQL and Neo4j together what people sometimes do is store the primary key for the row in the relational database as a property on a Neo4j node/property. Then from your application code you can do the appropriate relational db query.

Any reason why you can't just store the simulation file IDs in Neo4j as well?

Thanks Mark for your answer. Do you have some tutorial for linking Neo4j/MySQL ? I couldn't find interesting things.

Actually, i already stored the simulation file ID in neo4j but i am looking to make the node ID point on another ID in RDBMS.
