'''<big>The text below is a transcript of the presentation ''[https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:KB_Wikibase.cloud_Unboxing_Experience,_Netherlands_Wikibase_Knowlegde_Group,_22-07-2022.pdf KB's Wikibase.cloud Unboxing Experience]''</big>''' | |||
In June-July 2002 the KB created and configured this instance on Wikibase.cloud. Many of the steps we needed to take in the setup process were as to be expected when working with fresh MediaWiki instances in general, and Wikidata in particular. However, some steps were not immediately logical, manifest, clearly documented or simply beyond our (then) knowledge and experience. We created a '''[https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:KB_Wikibase.cloud_Unboxing_Experience,_Netherlands_Wikibase_Knowlegde_Group,_22-07-2022.pdf presentation]''' in which we share experiences and first impressions of unboxing, setting up, configuring and tweaking '''our [https://kbtestwikibase.wikibase.cloud/wiki/Main_Page Wikibase.cloud test instance]'''. We also present solutions for most of the issues we encountered. | In June-July 2002 the KB created and configured this instance on Wikibase.cloud.

* ISSUE: ''Default data import speed is rather limited''. When importing items into a Wikibase using REST API-based tools such as [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Help:QuickStatements QuickStatements], [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Pywikibot pywikibot] or [https://github.com/SuLab/WikidataIntegrator WikidataIntegrator], the maximum import speed is about 3-10 items per second, as explained in the article ''[https://www.wikibase.consulting/fast-bulk-import-into-wikibase/ Fast Bulk Import Into Wikibase]'' by [https://www.wikibase.consulting/ The Wikibase Consultancy]. This is an OK speed for small datasets, but if you (like the KB) plan to import millions of items, this is obviously too slow. | * ISSUE: ''Default data import speed is rather limited''.
