Neo4j was originally built to be embedded in Java applications, and most of the documentation and examples are evidence of that. Unfortunately, there is no native PHP wrapper for talking to Neo4j. Luckily, Neo4j also has a built-in REST server and PHP is very good at consuming REST services. There's already a good Neo4j REST PHP library out there, but I decided to write my own to get a better understanding of how the REST interface actually works.

As Jim says in his article, after reading it you should be better able to make an educated decision regarding when you might want to use HBase vs when you’d be better off with a “traditional” database.

Cassandra's sstableloader provides option to load the existing data from flat files to a cassandra ring. Hence this can be used as a way to migrate data in relational databases to cassandra, as most relational databases let us export the data into flat files.
