  text: <jats:p>With significant growth in RDF datasets, application developers demand
    online availability of these datasets to meet the end users’ expectations. Various
    interfaces are available for querying RDF data using SPARQL query language. Studies
    show that SPARQL end-points may provide high query runtime performance at the
    cost of low availability. For example, it has been observed that only 32.2% of
    public endpoints have a monthly uptime of 99–100%. One possible reason for this
    low availability is the high workload experienced by these SPARQL endpoints. As
    complete query execution is performed at server side (i.e., SPARQL endpoint),
    this high query processing workload may result in performance degradation or even
    a service shutdown. We performed extensive experiments to show the query processing
    capabilities of well-known triple stores by using their SPARQL endpoints. In particular,
    we stressed these triple stores with multiple parallel requests from different
    querying agents. Our experiments revealed the maximum query processing capabilities
    of these triple stores after which point they lead to service shutdowns. We hope
    this analysis will help triple store developers to design workload-aware RDF engines
    to improve the availability of their public endpoints with high throughput.</jats:p>
