I can attest to that, or at least to the inverse situation. We have a giant data pile that would fit well onto a knowledge graph, and we have a lot of potential use cases for graph queries. But whenever I try to get started, I end up with a bunch of different technologies that seem so foreign to everything else we’re using, it’s really tough to get into. I can’t seem to wrap my head around SPARQL, Gremlin/TinkerPop has lots of documentation that never quite answers my questions, and the whole Neo4J ecosystem seems mostly a sales funnel for their paid offerings.

Do you by chance have any recommendations?

I think neo4j is a perfectly good starting point. Yeah, I feel like they definitely push their enterprise offering pretty hard, but having a fully managed offering is totally worth it IMO.
