Count Store

In this lesson, you will learn about the transactional count store and how you can use it to optimize certain queries.

Neo4j maintains a transactional count store that keeps track of the number of nodesA vertex in a graph. In a property graph it can carry labels and properties. and relationshipsA named, directed connection between two nodes. Every relationship has a type, a start node and an end node. in the graph. This allows Neo4j to quickly return counts without having to scan the entire graph.
