New native integrations combined with Neo4j knowledge graphs speed GenAI development and improve deployment success rates
SAN MATEO, Calif., April 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Neo4j®, the world's leading graph database and analytics company, announced new native integrations with Google Cloud that dramatically speed up Generative AI application development and deployment across several crucial stages. The results solve a problem for enterprises that struggle with complexity and hallucinations when building and deploying successful GenAI applications requiring real-time, contextually rich data and accurate, explainable results. The integrations are available now.
Knowledge graphs capture relationships between entities, ground LLMs in facts, and enable LLMs to reason, infer, and retrieve relevant information accurately and effectively. According to Gartner®, "Data and analytics leaders must leverage the power of large language models (LLMs) with the robustness of knowledge graphs for fault-tolerant AI applications," in Gartner's November 2023 report AI Design Patterns for Knowledge Graphs and Generative AI.
Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) is the technique by which LLMs access external datasets. Combining knowledge graphs with RAG, known as GraphRAG, ensures that GenAI outcomes are accurate, explainable, and transparent, including with real-time data.
GraphRAG with Google Cloud: capabilities and benefits
Developers can easily apply GraphRAG techniques with knowledge graphs to ground LLMs for accuracy, context, and explainability, enhancing GenAI innovation. Specifically, they can:
A history of innovation: additional partnership milestones
Regulated customers will be able to meet strict data residency, security, and regulatory requirements in Google Distribution Cloud (GDC) Hosted, which became generally available in March. GDC is an air-gapped private cloud infrastructure and edge environment designed specifically for public sector organizations and regulated enterprises. Neo4j is the preferred launch partner for GDC to provide Graph Database and Analytics capabilities.
Customers can also run in-memory graph analysis of complex hidden data patterns using Neo4j's catalog of 70+ graph data science functions directly on BigQuery data and from BigQuery SQL using Apache Spark Stored Procedures.
In addition, Neo4j this month won Google Cloud's Technology Partner of the Year in the Data Management category for the second year in a row. Neo4j in 2023 was the only native graph vendor to launch native product integrations with GenAI features in Google Cloud Vertex AI platform. Neo4j launched its strategic partnership with Google Cloud in 2019. Neo4j also integrated native vector capabilities into its core graph database last year, enabling it to serve as long-term memory for LLMs.
