Simple and Realistic Data Generation

Summary: DB-agnostic, graph-directed data generator for OLTP, OLAP, streaming; scales to large schemas with inter- and intra-table relations. Graph-based schema enables data with accurate characteristics across workloads, supporting DBMS-independent evaluation. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
