Neo4j Launches Infinigraph. What is it?
neo4j.comIt sounds interesting but based on their tendency to overhype everything - I am a little skeptical.
Have they finally managed to fix the scalability issues?

Thank you. I did some more in depth research and it sounds like they just fixed their clustering mechanism to actually do some sharding like elasticsearch and TigerGraph.
Calling it Infinigraph is a much better marketing move than saying “We finally fixed our clustering implementation to properly shard and scale”.

Output Hype Translation: After over a decade of “clustering”, Neo4j finally figured out sharding, basically fixing the thing their clustering should’ve done from the start.
