We've all used databases, 

but have you ever wondered how they actually work? And what would happen if the data got lost? 🔎

People of Malmö! Join us when we deep dive into graph databases together on May 15th at the sunny office of Neo4j! You'll meet junior and senior software engineers, as well as get the chance to mingle and look at how the backend of graph databases actually work!

If a regular database makes your daily work life easier, the graph database takes it to the next step. And Neo4j is the Rolls Royce of graph databases. You don't want to miss this! Read more and grab your ticket below. There are limited spots, and they fill up quickly. 

Pink Programming Sunday is our popular coding events where women, transgender and non-binary can meet up, code and network together!

Ps. Did you know when typing the word database on a QWERTY keyboard, you are only using your left hand?

How does a database work - Neo4j under the hood

How come databases work? What prevents data from being lost? How can my friend and I modify the data at the same time without problems? Which is the coolest graph database?

During this workshop you'll get the answers to these questions and many more, when we look at how the Neo4j core (the backend of our graph database) works.

Prerequisites: Know what a thread is (or read about it for 5 minutes beforehand)
Can write simple Java or a similar language. The exercises will be in Java, but if you know a similar programming language you will be okay.

Level: Intermediate
