Everything is a graph at my job, and I love graphs. We're using neo4j, but not just a single instance; we're providing a platform for users to setup their own neo4j instances. We offer various tools to import, edit and extend graphs. There graphs are defined by a taxonomy that's a graph, and users can define their own taxonomy according to a root taxonomy which is also a graph. It's graphs all the way down here, which is great if you love graphs.
And we get a lot of freedom. Neo4j does not use a schema to validate whether the data obeys a particular structure, so currently our taxonomies aren't binding, but I'm trying to figure out if I can make them binding in neo4j by stretching the plugin mechanisms a bit further than we've done so far. Not because anyone told me to, but because I think it's something we need.
It's a very relaxed atmosphere to dive deep into some very interesting topics.
