The integration allows users to launch Neo4J Aura on Google Cloud with a few clicks, unify Neo4j Aura expenditures with their Google services through GCP billing integration, and automatically apply any existing credits.
 

“With GCP and Aura combined, it becomes easy to use graph technology in any distributed cloud application. Users who have “graphy data” already hosted on GCP can easily spin up Aura, quickly load that data into a graph, and start using Cypher and graph tooling straight away,” Neo4J wrote in a blog post.
 

Neo4J Aura on GCP keeps users up-to-date with all the necessary upgrades and patches – without the downtime or maintenance window.
 

Microsoft announces end of life support for IE 11 in Microsoft 365 apps and services 
Microsoft announced that on November 30, 2020, the Microsoft Teams web app will no longer support IE 11 and on August 17, 2021, the remaining Microsoft 365 apps and services will no longer support IE 11.
 

New Microsoft 365 features will not be available or certain features may cease to work when accessing the app or service via IE 11.
 

“Customers have been using IE 11 since 2013 when the online environment was much less sophisticated than the landscape today. Since then, open web standards and newer browsers—like the new Microsoft Edge—have enabled better, more innovative online experiences,” Microsoft wrote in a post.
