How does it help with query performance?

It provides best practices for bounded traversals, indexing strategies, and techniques for avoiding 'supernodes' to ensure queries remain fast as your data grows.

Does this skill support Amazon Neptune?

Yes, it provides guidance for AWS-native graph deployments using Amazon Neptune, including support for Gremlin and SPARQL languages.

Can I use this for AI and RAG applications?

Absolutely. It includes specific patterns for building Knowledge Graphs to enrich LLM context through hybrid vector and graph search integrations.

When should I use a graph database instead of SQL?

Use a graph database when your queries involve deep traversals (4+ hops), variable relationships, or complex pathfinding that would require expensive multiple joins in a relational database.

Does it include support for PostgreSQL extensions?

Yes, it covers Apache AGE for developers who want to add graph capabilities to their existing PostgreSQL infrastructure without migrating data.
