This week Bea Hernández shared the slides from her talk at SatRDays on my favourite two topics – football and graphs! The Kafka connector that we’ve previously featured was released in the Confluent Marketplace, and Michael Hunger showed us how to analyse StackOverflow data using the Neo4j Graph Algorithms library.

6. In this week’s Neo4j Online Meetup, Michael Hunger shows
us how to analyse StackOverflow data using Neo4j Graph
Algorithms. Michael shows how to compute tag
correlations using Jaccard Similarity, and then use those
correlations to run other algorithms, such
as PageRank and Label Propagation.

7. David Allen continues his series of posts showing how to
automate Neo4j deployments on the major cloud
platforms, this time sharing his automation scripts for
Microsoft Azure.

graphs at the SatRDays conference. Bea shows how to
model football matches in a graph, and then home
advantage and competitiveness using
matches from La Liga and the Premier
League.
