How they relate

  • Both replace Neo4j. Alternatives to Neo4j →

    PartialFalkorDBRuns a subset of OpenCypher through the Redis protocol and its own clients, not over Bolt, so Neo4j drivers and procedures do not carry over.

    PartialMemgraphSpeaks Bolt and Cypher, so Neo4j drivers connect; the Cypher dialect differs in places and APOC and GDS procedures are only partly covered.
