New architecture fuses real-time transactions and analytics in one platform, with breakthrough performance and full fidelity at unprecedented scale

SAN MATEO, Calif., Sept. 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Neo4j^®, the leading graph database and analytics platform, today unveiled Infinigraph: a new distributed graph architecture now available in Neo4j’s self-managed offering. Infinigraph enables Neo4j’s database to run operational and analytical workloads together in a single system at 100TB+ scale, without fragmenting the graph, duplicating infrastructure, or compromising performance.

The database guarantees full ACID compliance so that every read, write, and update is consistent, reliable, and recoverable – even with billions of relationships and thousands of concurrent queries run in real time.

Infinigraph opens up use cases previously out of reach for most organizations at a time when GenAI deployments demand unprecedented data scale. Customers can now embed tens of millions of documents as vectors, storing them directly in the graph to power context-aware assistants and semantic search. Infinigraph also powers global fraud intelligence, product graphs with hundreds of millions of SKUs, and compliance analyses across decades of data – all fully traversable in real time. It handles more connected data than most enterprises have ever handled in one system, and builds on the scale and trust Neo4j already delivers to 84 of the Fortune 100.

Eliminating Data Silos Between Transactional & Analytical Systems

Enterprises are plagued by data silos separating transactional systems from analytical tools. This divide hampers AI applications, slows real-time decision-making, and drives up costs through complex integrations. Organizations are forced to stitch together dual databases, synchronize multiple separate systems, or push a single engine beyond its limits.

“Gartner continues to see a convergence of operational and analytical systems. This may be through collaboration rather than full integration,” according to the 2024 Gartner^® Magic Quadrant™ for Cloud Data Management Systems. “This is being achieved by three viable approaches: (1) One database and one copy of data; (2) one database but with two engines, one row-based, one column-based, integrated and synchronized; (3) two or more databases that are designed to synchronize and work together.”

Infinigraph solves this problem directly. It enables teams to run both types of workloads in the same system at unprecedented scale, without ETL pipelines, sync delays, or redundant infrastructure. It can power autonomous agents, compliance systems, and transactional applications on one consistent source of connected truth. Teams can detect fraud and analyze fraud rings from the same dataset. They can generate real-time customer recommendations while analyzing decades of customer data and behavioral trends.

Infinigraph: Built for Distributed Graph Scale

Infinigraph is the result of a multi-year engineering investment to overcome one of the biggest challenges in databases: scaling transactional and analytical graph workloads without sacrificing performance, structure, or ease of use. The new architecture uses sharding that distributes the graph’s property data across different members of a cluster. The graph stays logically whole, queries behave as expected, and applications scale without code changes or manual workarounds.

Benefits include:

• 100TB+ horizontal scale with zero application rewrites
• Embed billions of vectors directly in the graph
• High performance across massive transactional and analytical workloads
• High availability across data centers through autonomous clustering, which detects and recovers from failures automatically
• No ETL pipelines, sync delays, or duplicated storage
• Preserved graph structure for real-time traversal, even at scale
• Full ACID compliance for consistent enterprise-grade data integrity
• Pricing designed for scale, with compute and storage billed separately, for greater control over cost and deployment flexibility.

With Infinigraph, Neo4j provides customers with the full spectrum of scale architectures. They can deploy replicated graphs for high availability and read scalability, federated graphs with Fabric for querying disconnected graphs, or sharded graphs with Infinigraph for seamless scalability. Customers can mix and match these architectures to drive various use cases across the organization. 

Infinigraph is available now as part of Neo4j’s Enterprise Edition and will soon be available in AuraDB, Neo4j’s cloud-native platform for graph applications. See our blog for more details.

Built on a History of Innovation

This latest milestone extends Neo4j’s leadership as the graph layer for intelligent applications. The company pioneered the native graph architecture now used by more than half of the Fortune 500, and launched the first graph analytics offering for any data platform, native vector search for graph-based GenAI retrieval, AI-ready capabilities across its cloud portfolio, and enterprise-ready graph data science, including the world’s largest library of graph algorithms.

Neo4j’s use by 84% of the Fortune 100 includes Adobe, BT Group, Novo Nordisk, Uber, and UBS. The company was named a 2025 Gartner Peer Insights™ Customer’s Choice, recognized as a Visionary in the 2024 Gartner^® Magic Quadrant^™ for Cloud Database Management Systems, ranked a Strong Performer in The Forrester Wave^™: Vector Databases, Q3 2024, and surpassed $200M in revenue in late 2024.
