The iBench Integration Metadata Generator

Summary: iBench is an open-source, extensible generator of large, realistic integration metadata scenarios spanning schemas, constraints, and mappings. Its fine-grained controls enable reproducible benchmarking across data exchange, mapping, and schema-evolution systems, exposing performance and generality differences.
