Scalability Report on Triple Store Applications. See also the PDF version, requires a PDF reader such as Adobe Acrobat Reader. Abstract This report examines a set of open source triple store systems suitable for The SIMILE Project's browser-like applications. Measurements on performance within a common hardware, software, and dataset environment grant insight on which systems hold the most promise for acting as large, remote backing stores for SIMILE's future requirements.

The SIMILE Project (Semantic Interoperability of Metadata In like and Unlike Environments) is a joint research project between the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), Hewlett-Packard Labs (HP), the Massachusetts Institute of Technology / Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (MIT / CSAIL), and MIT Libraries. Funding is provided by HP. Contents Introduction This report focuses on the performance of existing data store systems built specifically for the Semantic Web.

Problem Statement Related Work Testing Environment Hardware Environment Dataset Jena Filesystem D. RDF Store Benchmarks with DBpedia. In the course of my diploma thesis, I evaluated the performance of several RDF stores when small pieces of information are requested from a large dataset (DBpedia infoboxes plus two very small sets). The benchmark queries employ varying levels of joins and constraints.

As of now, only the configuration for OpenLink Virtuoso has been optimized - this must be taken into consideration when comparing performance. Contents News 2008/01/17: Added a third additional index for Virtuoso; results updated accordingly. 2008/01/16: Updated results for OpenLink Virtuoso - now using more adequate indexes, resulting in significantly shorter query times. Incorporated Feedback from Andy Seaborne (HP). 1. The use case is a mobile client-server application that allows for the exploration of Linked Data based on geographical coordinates. 2. 2.1 OpenLink Virtuoso Open-Source Edition 5.0.2 Virtuoso was compiled from source for x64.

The following parameters were modified from the default configuration: 3. 4. 5. 6. Un petit panorama des triplestores. Concepts élémentaires Un triplestore (ou triple store) est une base de données destinée au stockage des données du web de données : les triplets. Ces derniers sont des déclarations dont la structure est invariablement de la forme de sujet-prédicat-objet, par exemple “Jean a 3 enfants”, “Jean est marié à Marie”. Dans un triplestore, le format des triplets est celui de métadonnées RDF (Resource Description Framework). Tout comme dans une base de données relationnelle classique, on stocke l’information dans un triplestore et on la récupère à l’aide d’un langage de requête. Mais contrairement à la base de données relationnelle, le triplestore est optimisé pour travailler en entrée et en sortie (stockage et récupération) de très nombreux triplets. Performance Certains triplestores peuvent stocker des milliards de triplets.

La page du W3C LargeTripleStores donne une liste de triplestores remarquables pour leur performance. Implémentation Catalogue Sources : LargeTripleStores - W3C Wiki. This page is for references to signed quotes of deployments of large triples stores rather than predictions of what some software might scale to. Table of Contents: AllegroGraph (1+Trillion) Franz announced at the June 2011 Semtech conference a load and query of 310 Billion triples as part of a joint project with Intel. In August 2011, with the help of Stillwater SC and Intel we achieved the industry's first load and query of 1 Trillion RDF Triples. The driving force has been Amdocs and their AIDA platform.

We currently load LUBM 8000 in just over 36 minutes. Franz is in late-stage development on a clustered version of AllegroGraph that will push storage into trillions of triples. Note 1: AllegroGraph provides dynamic reasoning and DOES NOT require materialization. Stardog (50B) Stardog is a pure Java RDF database which supports all of the OWL2 profiles using a dynamic (backward-chaining) approach.
