A Glimpse Into 2023 for OST & RDFox

2023 was a year filled with achievements ranging from new RDFox releases to winning awards! In this blog post, we’ll be summarising the highlights of our eventful 2023.

‍

Fast, faster, fastest — always RDFox.

The latest independent benchmark report measured the performance of 6 triple-stores using Wikidata.

Wikidata is one of the most popular RDF sources in the world with over 15 billion triples.

The report measured the import time, export time, and query speed of all the triple-stores, and it was found that:

• RDFox only took 6 hours to import the entire Wikidata dataset.
• RDFox had the fastest query speed of 0.016 seconds, about 5 to 750 times faster than other triple-stores.
• RDFox was the only triple-store that could export the entire Wikidata dataset—in less than 6 hours, too!

Record breaking turnout!

9 workshops, 250 attendees.

Our Intro to SPARQL and Advanced Reasoning workshops range from teaching people how to write queries to learning about advanced Datalog, and we’ve had some amazing feedback!

"Incredible session! Thank you for the enriching clarifications."

"The workshop proved RDFox is easy to start with, despite being very powerful."
