Holistic Benchmarking of Big Linked Data

HOBBIT aims at abolishing the barriers in the adoption and deployment of Big Linked Data by European companies, by means of open benchmarking reports that allow them to assess the fitness of existing solutions for their purposes. These benchmarks are based on data that reflects reality and measures industry-relevant Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) with comparable results using standardized hardware.

OpenLink & SAGE Project: Creating a GeoSPARQL Benchmark

The success of the HOBBIT benchmarking platform, along with the fact that many RDF / SPARQL systems are readily available for benchmarking by the platform, made us look at the options of using it as part of another R&D project, called SAGE, in which OpenLink is involved. The project “SAGE: Semantic Geospatial Analytics” aims to […]

HOBBIT Spatial Benchmark V2.0

A number of real and synthetic benchmarks have been proposed for evaluating the performance of link discovery systems. So far, only a limited number of link discovery benchmarks target the problem of linking geo-spatial entities. However, some of the largest knowledge bases of the Linked Open Data Cloud, such as LinkedGeoData contain vast amounts of […]
