My neo4j community database reach near 1TB and I have only 64GB of RAM , can I use fabric to scale the database horizontally and share the load between different servers or fabric is only for enterprise licensed neo4j versions?
From the Getting Started with Neo4j Fabric Blog:
Fabric is an Enterprise Only feature, meaning it is not available for the Neo4j Community Edition.
The licensing FAQ says:
Neo4j Enterprise Edition is also available for free for a number of uses
You could state your use case and ask them for a free Enterprise license maybe.
The community edition doesn't have an option for scaling/sharding.

The differences are quite scattered .
I want the complete list of differences between the community & Enterprise Editions of Docker
I'm trying to make the config flag dbms.read_only=true working with Neo4j community edition (I know there are user roles in the enterprise, but I'm not wealthy enough for their expensive fees).
I've done this:
Created a database as read/write, using Neo4j Desktop (v1.1.8) under Mac and 3.4.5 as database engine.
Populated it with just a few nodes
Stopped, set dbms.read_only=true and restarted
At the last step, the server logs shows the error: "UnsupportedOperationException: Can't create index writer in read only mode" and shuts down. So, is that option really (still) working?
Neo4j Desktop is meant for usage with Enterprise Edition (you do get an individual license for usage for dev purposes only), not Community Edition.
I believe there's an issue with dbms.read_only=true and running via Neo4j Desktop, but there isn't any problem using the server deployment of Neo4j Community edition and using that setting.
My advice would be to download the community edition from Neo4j and use that directly rather than going through Neo4j Desktop.
I have a one question about Neo4j
Most of the monitoring features are only available in the Enterprise edition of Neo4j.
But I just use Community edition of Neo4j(Ver.2.3.10)
However I think that also Community edition can be monitored by JMX
If it possible, How can I monitor Community edition of Neo4j using JMX?
It is an Enterprise Edition feature only, the Community Edition does not expose any metrics.
Hope this helps,
Tom
We currently have a 4 node cluster running Cassandra 2.0 community edition and would like to know if we can migrate to Datastax enterprise edition. Is there any documentation available for this.
Check the DataStax Upgrade Guide:
"Upgrading from Datastax Community to DataStax Enterprise"

I've just started to learn the Neo4j graphs db. I have a question:
What is the difference between neo4j enterprise and neo4j community for windows?
You can find a list of differences on the price comparison overview.
Features the Open Source version lacks are:
High-Performance Cache
Clustering
Online Backup
Advanced Monitoring
The paid licenses also come with a support contract (you can ask for help from people who will not downvote, edit or close your questions).
Neo4j Enterprise just has more 'enterprise features' such as clustering and additional security for example. The comparison link the other poster provided is good to see the differences between enterprise and community server but it does not mention that Neo4j Enterprise is also free under it's open source license! I would just focus on Neo4j server, not the new 'platform' they are now pushing.
If you don't want to play with their Neo4j Desktop under a trial agreement, you can go straight to Neo4j Enterprise server and run it. It starts the same way as the community edition and is open source under the [AGPLv3 license] https://www.gnu.org/licenses/agpl-3.0.en.html.
You can download Neo4j Enterprise versions before 3.3.0 from the neo4j distribution site below. (3.2.8 is the last version that includes the AGPL license on their distribution site.)
http://dist.neo4j.org/neo4j-enterprise-3.2.8-windows.zip
OR
If you want to use the newest free Neo4j Enterprise edition (currently 3.3.1 as of today) then you can download the free open source binaries we package from source for our government clients at https://igovsol.com/downloads.html
Once you download the zip file to the following to get started. (Assuming you have JAVA setup on your windows machine.)
https://neo4j.com/docs/operations-manual/current/installation/windows/
1) Right-click the downloaded file, click Extract All.
Change directory to top-level extracted directory.
2) Run bin\neo4j console
3) Stop the server by typing Ctrl-C in the console.
The enterprise package is 100% free under it's open source AGPL license.
Unzip the package you download and you can verify it by looking at the LICENSE.txt
If you are curious about learning why you can't get the free AGPL binaries after 3.3.0 - checkout a blog post I wrote at https://blog.igovsol.com/2017/11/14/Neo4j-330-is-out-but-where-are-the-open-source-enterprise-binaries.html
