Exploring datasets with graph analytics
The tutorials that focus on exploring datasets want to showcase how to use Memgraph on that particular dataset using Cypher queries. We encourage all Memgraph users to go through at least one of the tutorials to get familiar with Memgraph.
You can explore the datasets in two ways. If you just want to take a better look
at the data and the data model, and try out a few queries, open Memgraph
Playground (opens in a new tab) and continue with the
tutorials there. Note that you will not be able to execute write
operations.
On the other hand, if you would like to add changes to the dataset, download the
Memgraph Platform (opens in a new tab). Once you
have it up and running, open Memgraph Lab web application within the browser on
localhost:3000
(opens in a new tab) and navigate to the Datasets
in the
sidebar. From there, choose the dataset that seems interesting to you and
continue with the tutorial.
You can also run an instance in Memgraph
Cloud. Once you sign
up (opens in a new tab), create a new project. From the project you can
connect to Memgraph Lab web application and navigate to the Datasets
in the
sidebar to choose the preferred dataset.
