Graphs are a versatile and dynamic tool that can solve complex problems, as demonstrated by real-world government use cases. The U.S. Army and In-Q-Tel (IQT), a nonprofit working with America's intelligence agencies, have successfully utilized Neo4j to address challenges in supply chain management, maintenance cost management, and technology evaluation. IQT's network of connections with various entities allowed them to evaluate tech innovations across multiple sectors, but manual processes were time-consuming and ineffective. Recognizing the need for automation, they adopted Neo4j, a graph database that enabled them to break down product sets into core capabilities, identify relationships between objects, and develop technology solutions by searching through vast amounts of data integrated under one common taxonomy. Thanks to Neo4j, IQT's technical staff can now generate new ideas faster and better evaluate technology trends, ultimately enhancing their mission fulfillment capabilities.
