- Cypher is a declarative graph query language that allows for expressive and efficient querying and updating of a property graph. Cypher is a relatively simple but still very powerful language. Very complicated database queries can easily be expressed through Cypher. This allows users to focus on their domain instead of getting lost in database access.
Cypher was originally created by Neo Technology for its graph database Neo4j, but was opened up through the openCypher project in October 2015 and has since been adopted by several other graph database vendors, including SAP HANA and Agens Graph.
