Data Services includes services that allow for direct access to databases and dumps, as well as web interfaces for querying and programmatic access to data stores.
Data services currently include: Wiki Replicas, Wikimedia Dumps, Shared Storage, CirrusSearch Elasticsearch replicas, Wikimedia Enterprise, Quarry, and PAWS.
Data stores
Wiki Replicas are MySQL/MariaDB databases that replicate near-realtime from the production MediaWiki databases of Wikimedia Foundation wikis.
Wikimedia Dumps offers a range of data downloads including full text dumps, and other datasets.
Shared storage is offered via NFS . It includes shared directories offered to VPS and Toolforge users. Wikimedia Dumps are also offered via the Shared Storage services, but treated as a Data Service because of their wide use.
The " Cloud Elastic " servers are a replica of the CirrusSearch OpenSearch indices made available to Wikimedia Cloud Services applications (both Cloud VPS and Toolforge).
Wikimedia Enterprise APIs give high-volume and high query rate access to Wikimedia project data. Users of Toolforge , Cloud VPS , and PAWS can call any of the endpoints described in the Wikimedia Enterprise documentation without passing an authorization header .
Web interfaces
Quarry and PAWS require a Wikimedia SUL account to login.
Quarry is a graphical web interface that allows users to query Wiki Replicas and ToolsDB using SQL.
