Stardog 1.0.2 Released: NoSQL Graph Database Leading Innovation in Semantic Technologies
From the post:
C&P LLC, the company behind Stardog, today announced the release of Stardog 1.0.2. Stardog is a NoSQL graph database based on W3C semantic web standards: SPARQL, RDF, and OWL. Stardog is a key component in Linked Data-based information integration at Fortune 500 enterprises and governments around the world.
The new release follows closely on last month’s launch of Stardog 1.0. The 1.0.2 release includes Stardog Community, a free version of Stardog for community use in academia, non-profit, and related sectors. Stardog is being used by customers in the areas of government, aerospace, financial, intelligence, defense, and at consumer-oriented startups.
“We are pleased with the technical progress made on Stardog since the 1.0 launch,” said Dr Evren Sirin, CTO, C&P LLC. “Today’s release begins our support for SPARQL 1.1, a crucial standard in enterprise information integration and semantic technologies. It also introduces Stardog Community to a new user base in linked open data, open government data, and related fields.”
I’m not real sure I would want to tie Linked Data or SPARQL to the tail of my product.
Still, there is a fair amount of it and the sheer inertia of government systems will result in more of it and it will always be around as a legacy format. So there isn’t any harm in supporting it, so long as you don’t get tunnel vision from it.
