title: (Neo4J or mysql) and redis - social networking
body: <p>Building a music app with an emphasis on social networking - lets say there are ~10-15 nodes (user, artist, song, etc..). Written in PHP, would use Neo4J's REST API.</p>
  
  <p>For 1K or 10K or 100k or 1M users...</p>
  
  <p>Is neo4j able to replace mysql and preform equally well in terms of serving static data (fronted by redis)? How about writes (e.g. user edits profile)?</p>
  
  <p>I was thinking about using MySQL with Neo4j initially. Some google searches pointed to less flexibility and more maintenance. Others said "works like a charm". Thoughts?</p>
  
  <p>Thank you.</p>
