User generated benchmark derived from the DBTest'18 paper [1] by Tableau. It contains real data and queries from 46 public workbooks in Tableau Public [2].
We downloaded 46 of the biggest workbooks and converted the data to .csv files and collected the SQL queries that appear in the Tableau log when the workbooks are visualized. We processed the .csv files and queries with the purpose of making them load and run on different database systems.
This repository contains samples and schema of each .csv file, the queries and a set of scripts for working with the benchmark. The full .csv files are available in compressed bzip2 format at: https://event.cwi.nl/da/PublicBIbenchmark/
Each directory is associated with a workbook and contains:
samples: a sample of each .csv file (first 20 rows)
tables: .sql files containing the schema of each .csv file
queries: .sql files containing the queries
data-urls.txt: links for downloading the full .csv.bz2 compressed files
There are 46 workbooks containing 206 tables (.csv files) with the total size of 41 GB compressed and 386 GB uncompressed.
Multiple .csv files may overlap but are not identical. This is because Tableau extracts the same workbook in multiple different ways for different queries.
The benchmark contains 646 queries which have been tested on MonetDB. The same queries with VectorWise specific syntax are available on the dev/master branch under benchmark/<workbook>/queries-vectorwise.
The dev/master branch contains:
- scripts to download and decompress the entire dataset
- scripts to create tables (and adapt schema syntax), load data and run queries for MonetDB and VectorWise
- scripts that document the process of cleaning, fixing and adapting the data and queries from the original Tableau specific form
For more info see the README on dev/master.
