   Finally, before jumping into the prices. 
   
  -I want to point out that in most scenarios, purchasing a Neo4j Enterprise commercial subscription makes no sense if you have not yet developed your solution. I.E. If you are in development.    Why would you need production support for something that has not yet been built.

  -Don't waste your budget on unnecessary production support for something not yet in production. Use your budget to develop your graph solution.  We would be happy to help you build a solution if you need help.

   So where does this pricing information come from?
   
  -A while back, Neo4j Inc allowed one of it's partners, and a great company I know well and respect,

  -This instantly made the pricing information 'public domain' which is why I can post this information.

positive.code: 
  Neo4j Enterprise is available under a dual license model. You have the choice of using it with either a commercial or the open source https://www.gnu.org/licenses/agpl-3.0.en.html[AGPLv3 license, window="_blank"]
  
  The commercial license is included with paid commercial subscriptions.
  
  If you don't have a commercial license, then Neo4j Enterprise simply defaults to the standard open source https://www.gnu.org/licenses/agpl-3.0.en.html[AGPLv3 license, window="_blank"]. 
  
  
  You can use Neo4j Enterprise with it's open source license in any environment , including production, and yes you CAN use it in closed source projects!  There are no core or instance limitations if you use it under the open source license. 
  
  My next post will address the Neo4j AGPL mis-information that is floating around on this subject. 
  
  The US Federal government is already using Neo4j Enterprise in production, with the https://www.gnu.org/licenses/agpl-3.0.en.html[AGPLv3 license, window="_blank"] in closed source projects.  
  
  The commercial license is actually more restrictive in most scenarios, so what are you really paying for when you purchase a Neo4j Enterprise commercial subscription? 
  
  You are basically paying for production email and phone support for Neo4j.    
  
  It is very important to understand that Neo4j production support only covers Neo4j. It does not cover any of the other software you use in your project such as ElasticSearch, Kafka, client side UI, micro-services, or custom applications. I.E. It only covers a single component of your technology stack.
  
  If you need production support for your project, it makes no sense to purchase production support for Neo4j while leaving all the other software unsupported.
  
  Buying support for Neo4j would be like only getting support for the water pump of a new custom car you had built.  If its transmission fails - good luck!

  The Neo4j database runtime is called an “Instance”. Clusters comprise multiple instances: normally three or more. Instances normally run on different machines / OSs, although multiple instances can be run on a single machine / OS. Each Neo4j instance runs inside of a corresponding Java Virtual Machine (JVM) instance.
