LDBC EU Project Objectives
The LDBC EU project had the following two objectives:
-
To develop new benchmarks that will spur research & industry progress in large-scale graph and RDF data management. This includes setting challenges that will lead to significant progress in:
-
scalability, storage, indexing and query optimization techniques for RDF and graph database solutions beyond Terabyte scales.
-
quantitatively and qualitatively assess different solutions for data integration,
-
computationally cheaper reasoning in RDF database systems.
-
-
To establish an industry-neutral entity (the LDBC foundation) for developing graph and RDF benchmarks, auditing benchmark results, and publishing audited results.
