The evaluation between SQLserver and Neo4j is based upon a set of predefined queries. Graph databases are implemented using Neo4j . The database is queried with Cypher Query Language. Queries designed to analyze the performance difference between a relational database and a graph database.

Step 1:
implement Neo4j
create graph database nodes
create relationships between nodes
execute the queries

Step 2:
implement SQL Server
create database with same data of step 1
execute the same queries

Step 3:
Compare the results between step 1 and step 2 by measure the retrieval time for 100 objects, 500 objects, 1000 objects
