Comment on Ask HN: What Is Going on with Neo4j?parent

Comments

It doesn't seem that spicy. Graph databases are a niche thing. While I can't think of a problem I've had to deal with that would require one, I'm sure there are some problems where they make sense. In those cases you could just charge people whatever you feel like. That does come with expectations, and from the comments it seems like Neo4J haven't been able to deliver. Anyway, pricing, for niche product, you don't have a $64.80/month offering, bump that to a $1000 for a developer version and just stick the "Contact Sales" on everything else. If you need a graph database (or any specialized database) then pricing is almost irrelevant.
