I'm trying to dive into learning about the Neptune Graph Database, but I've hit a bit of a wall finding quality training material and guides. The only thing I've stumbled across is a brief introduction guide from AWS, which barely scratches the surface. If anyone has recommendations for in-depth tutorials or books on Neptune or useful resources, I would really appreciate it!

Neptune property graphs mainly use Gremlin for queries since it's part of the Apache Tinkerpop framework. While Cypher support is available, it's more of a secondary option. I recommend checking out the Tinkerpop documentation and tutorials to get a solid foundation for working with Neptune. Here’s the link: https://tinkerpop.apache.org/
Are you familiar with RDF and Property graphs? Understanding these concepts will really help you grasp how Neptune works, especially if your use case leans towards property graphs. Let me know your thoughts!
Only on a very superficial level. Though I believe my current use case would be for a property graph.
Honestly, I suggest looking at Neo4j tutorials. They tend to be much more detailed and packed with examples. Once you have the basics of graph databases down, you can zoom in on the specifics of Neptune if you need to, or even run Neo4j on AWS if that suits your needs!
I'll definitely take a look at the neo4j tutorials if I can't find any good Neptune resources.
Thank you this is very helpful!
