Is D3.js the right choice for real-time visualization of Neo4j Graph DB data -

i cs research pupil @ uw, , grouping @ point of trying visualize specific network traffic set neo4j graph db in real time.

i have read many different tools such gephi, cytoscape, rickshaw (based on d3.js), others, , d3.js.

we far going forwards d3.js, wanted community opinion. can't utilize cytoscape because of neo4j, , sense d3.js work best semi-large info in fast real-time environment.

suggestions?

perhaps question, sense free input: best way implement neo4j? java, ruby, node.js?

thank you!

my understanding: gephi doesn't real-time updates; it's used on static data.

one major consideration - visualization wish present? directed graph? cyclic? weighted? additional labels?

some toolkits 'fixed' in can display, create easy nowadays graph. others (like d3) extensible, create anything.

for purposes of stackoverflow format, might improve answers if can pin downwards limitations , needs of scheme (actual info rate, thin/thick client, type of viz, etc)
