R.V.Guha
What is rdfDB
rdfDB is intended to be a simple, scalable, open-source database
for RDF.
The goals of this project are to build a database that is capable of
- Supporting a graph oriented API via a textual query language ala SQL.
- Load/Reload an RDF file from a url into the database
- Scalable to millions of nodes and triples.
- Provide support for RDF Schemas.
- Provide support for some basic forms of inferencing.
- Provide both C and Perl access to the database.
- The Perl philosophy applies : Simple things should be simple and complex things should be possible.
The current version is 0.46.
