Import data to Neo4j Kubernetes Cluster

10/2/2019

I am currently running Neo4j with 3 core servers and 3 replicas within my Kubernetes (PKS) environment. I am able to successfully connect to the remote cluster from my local machine via Neo4j desktop. I am now trying to import a large (3gb) CSV file from our Hadoop environment into the Neo4j cluster. I downloaded the file on my local machine and was able to use "neo4j-admin import" to create a graph.db. I am now wondering how to get that graph.bd or csv file directly into the Neo4j Kubernetes cluster.

The documented way to transfer a neo4j DB is to use:

  • The neo4j-admin dump command on the originating machine to create a dump file.
  • The neo4j-admin load command on the destination machine to fill a fresh DB from that dump file.

Refer to the documentation for more details.
