Argues that a knowledge graph unifies scattered relational databases into one graph to answer cross-process questions (customer LTV, ad ROI, orders→deliveries) more easily than a dimensional warehouse; shows translating a third-normal-form e‑commerce schema into nodes/relationships, loading into Neo4j AuraDB, using Cypher merges with natural identifiers and daily refreshes, and orchestrating pipelines with Airflow+Python. Demonstrates a supply‑chain/marketing example that links campaigns to delayed deliveries and claims the integrated graph yields faster, clearer pattern and fraud detection than the warehouse.
