The Social Network Benchmark (SNB) suite defines graph workloads targeting database management systems and is maintained by the LDBC SNB Task Force.
The benchmark suite consists of two distinct workloads on a common dataset:
- The Business Intelligence workload is focusing on aggregation- and join-heavy complex queries touching a large portion of the graph with microbatches of insert/delete operations. Its data sets are available in Cloudflare R2.
- The Interactive workload captures transactional graph processing scenario with complex read queries that access the neighbourhood of a given node in the graph and update operations that continuously insert new data in the graph. Its data sets are available in the CWI/SURF data repository.
For a brief overview, see our talk given at FOSDEM 2023’s graph developer room. The Social Network Benchmark’s specification can be found on arXiv.
