[Question] Availability of DBMS tuning benchmark dataset for academic research

[seulgit02]

Hi, and thank you for maintaining this great project.

I'm a research intern at DELAB (Data Engineering Lab), Yonsei University in South Korea. I'm currently conducting research on automatic DBMS parameter tuning, with a particular focus on role-based knob mapping and cross-DBMS generalization.

I am trying to evaluate my method using real benchmark data that contains DBMS configurations and corresponding performance metrics (e.g., TPS, latency). I was wondering if there are any publicly available benchmark datasets used in YCSB experiments with PostgreSQL or other DBMSs that you would be able to share or point me to?

The dataset would be used strictly for academic purposes, and proper attribution would, of course, be given.

Thank you very much for your time and consideration

Hi @seulgit02 ,

we did many benchmarking studies using the YCSB (and custom extensions to it) back in our academic career and now with benchANT.

Feel free to have a look at the following GitHub repository for YCSB benchmark results including the applied DBMS configurations:

• https://github.com/benchANT

And here are some academic references and data set:

• https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/abstract/document/9285960
• https://dl.acm.org/doi/abs/10.1145/3297663.3310303
• https://zenodo.org/records/3854996
• https://zenodo.org/records/3518786

Feel free to reach out in case of any questions or if you are interested in discussing joint research ideas.

Thank you so much for sharing these valuable resources and benchmark datasets. The GitHub repository and academic references are incredibly helpful for my ongoing research on DBMS configuration optimization using YCSB workloads.

I truly appreciate your openness in making this data available — it’s a great contribution to the community.
Thanks again for your support and generosity!

Best regards,
