Sample Data Generation

Overview

This page describes the Graph Synth tool which generates sample data sets for testing a new Aerospike Graph Service (AGS) deployment.

What is Graph Synth?

Graph Synth is a Java executable that creates graph data source files in .csv format which you load into AGS with the Bulk Data Loader. The sample data it generates is based on a given schema in .yaml format. The Graph Synth repository includes several sample schemas to choose from, or you can create your own.

Graph Synth takes an input parameter called scale-factor which determines the size of the generated sample data. You can generate sample data sets of any size according to your testing needs.

Complete documentation and usage instructions are in the Graph Synth GitHub repository.
