Talk Title

The QLever SPARQL engine

Session Overview

I will give an overview of QLever, a new SPARQL engine designed for high-performance querying on massive knowledge graphs. QLever stands out by enabling efficient indexing and querying of datasets containing over 100 billion triples—like the complete Wikidata and OpenStreetMap—all on standard hardware (a standard PC suffices) and easy to use. Beyond standard SPARQL, QLever provides some exclusive add-ons, which help usability a lot: search-as-you type autocompetion that enables you to write queries even with basic knowledge of SPARQL and without knowing yet what's in the knowledge graphs, combined SPARQL+Text search, and GeoSPARQL + the interactive display of large numbers of geospatial objects on a map. The talk will be easy to understand and entertaining.

Target Audience

This talk will benefit technical practitioners involved in data management and big data analytics, as well as researchers and developers who deal with large-scale knowledge graphs. It will also be of interest to anyone looking for efficient tools to handle extensive RDF datasets or improve their SPARQL querying capabilities.

Desired Feedback

Our team is always curious to learn about the pain points and use cases of others working with graph data. This also includes people, who haven't realized yet that RDF and SPARQL might be the best solution for their data problems.

Speaker Details

Prof. Dr. Hannah Bast is a professor at the University of Freiburg, Germany. She and her group have been building intelligent information systems for over twenty years, with and without AI. The emphasis of her work is on efficiency, user-friendliness, and software that actually works. During a sabbatical at Google, she led an effort for a new route planner for public transport on Google Maps.

hi @hannahbast do you have the presentation and/or recording?

hannahbast commented 4 months ago

@VladimirAlexiev I have sent the slides to Adrian, but I am also attaching them to this comment.

I don't think the presentation was recorded because we were in a separate room.
