Announcing the GDC Text2GraphQuery Task Force

by Shipeng Qi / on 30 Dec 2025

We are delighted to announce the setup of the Text2GraphQuery Task Force.

The Text2GraphQuery Task Force aims to fuse existing graph query language related working groups (GQL Implementation working group, LEX working group), and establish a benchmark for Text to Graph Queries as a representative use case — including Text to GQL, SQL/PGQ, and Cypher, and (when feasible, and as a secondary priority) Text to other possible Graph Query Languages (Gremlin, SPARQL).

The Text2GraphQuery Benchmark will include benchmark datasets in different graph query languages, a dataset construction framework for benchmarking and post-training, and a benchmark suite. The benchmark is scheduled to be released in mid-2026.

The Text2GraphQuery Task Force was approved by the GDC Policy Council on September 05, 2025. The GDC GQL Implementation Working Group and the GDC Extended GQL Schema (LEX) Working Group are now incorporated into this Task Force, as subordinate work streams. See the Work Charter for Text2GraphQuery.

The initial members of the Text2GraphQuery Task Force include Ant Group, Oracle, GDC GQL Implementation WG, GDC LEX WG, and Apache GraphAr. If you are interested in joining the Text2GraphQuery Task Force, please reach out to info at ldbcouncil.org.
