h1. Spring Data Graph - Quick start
The primary goal of the "Spring Data":http://www.springsource.org/spring-data project is to make it easier to
build Spring-powered applications that use new data access technologies such as non-relational databases, map-reduce
frameworks, and cloud based data services. As the name implies, the **Graph** project provides integration with
graph value stores. The only supported Graph Database now is "Neo4j":http://neo4j.org/.

The Spring Data Graph project provides a simplified POJO based programming model that reduces that amount of
boilerplate code needed to create neo4j applications. it also provides a 'cross store' persistence solution that
can extend existing JPA data models with new parts (properties, entities, relationships) that are stored exclusively
in the graph while being transparently integrated with the JPA entities. This enables for easy and seamless
addition of new features that were not available before to JPA-based applications.

h2. Getting Help
This README and the "User Guide":http://static.springsource.org/spring-data/data-graph/docs/current/reference/html/
are the best places to start learning about Spring Data Graph. There are also
"three sample appilcations":https://github.com/SpringSource/spring-data-graph-examples briefly described in the
reference documentation.
