In this chapter, we discussed a number of topics that will help you get started when modeling your domain for a graph database management system. We talked about the fundamental building blocks of the model, compared and contrasted this with the way we do things in a relational database management system, and then discussed some often recurring patterns, both good and bad, for doing the modeling work.
With the model behind us, we can now start tackling specific business problems using Neo4j. In the next chapter, we will start discussing the different data import strategies that will fill the Neo4j database with domain-specific datasets.
