  success criteria
  ----------------
  
  I have tried to understand the graph split "experiment", but I don't 
understand the success criteria 
<https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:SPARQL_query_service/WDQS_backend_update/October_2023_scaling_update#Success_criteria>.
 My recommendation would be to work out the success criteria more in detail 
before starting the user feedback.
  
  relation to movement strategy
  -----------------------------
  
  I addition I don't understand how this activity supports the Wikimedia 
Movement Strategy. Making it more difficult to write SPARQL queries does not 
seem very inclusive to me.
  
  alternatives
  ------------
  
  I wonder if blazegraph (in the current configuration) is still the best 
solution. Coincidentally I was seeing a talk 
<https://annex.softwareheritage.org/public/events/2024-02-01-swhsymposium/03.VignaSebastiano.pdf>
 about another large graph about all software source code 34b nodes. The 
approach was to rewrite the software - that was written in JAVA - in rust. I 
imaging rewriting blazegraph in rust might give a similar (one time) 
performance gain as well and might make the split unnecessary.
  
  Another alternative is to translate SPARQL queries to PHP code and execute it 
on the mediawiki runners. Maybe some mariadb graph query extension could also 
be helpful. While the implementation of the sparql endpoint would be some 
effort, it would eliminate the effort of syncing the data from mariadb to 
blazegraph.
