I took a glance at Virtuoso. I found nothing about scaling Virtuoso to a cluster (which is IMO what WMF needs because of growing amounts of data and reaching the limits of what 1 machine can handle) A snippet from WP: "Virtuoso is designed to take advantage of operating system threading support and multiple CPUs. It consists of a single process with an adjustable pool of threads shared between clients. Multiple threads may work on a single index tree with minimal interference with each other. One cache of database pages is shared among all threads and old dirty pages are written back to disk as a background process." Virtuoso IMO is not the way forward for WMF. We need a distributed graph/column database with SPARQL on top. See https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T289561 for an application that has exactly that (but seems abandoned since dec 2020 unfortunately) TASK DETAIL https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T206561 EMAIL PREFERENCES https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/settings/panel/emailpreferences/ To: So9q Cc: So9q, TallTed, Sj, Jerven, Base, TomT0m, Akuckartz, GreenReaper, Addshore, Lucas_Werkmeister_WMDE, Aklapper, Smalyshev, Invadibot, MPhamWMF, maantietaja, CBogen, Nandana, Namenlos314, Lahi, Gq86, GoranSMilovanovic, QZanden, EBjune, merbst, LawExplorer, _jensen, rosalieper, Scott_WUaS, Jonas, Xmlizer, jkroll, Wikidata-bugs, Jdouglas, aude, Tobias1984, Manybubbles, Mbch331
