R.V. Guha's rdfDB. Intended to be a simple, scalable, open-source
database for RDF. Written in C and based on top of the Sleepycat
Berkeley Database, it supports interrogation via TCP/IP sockets,
meaning integration is possible with any programming language.
rdfDB uses a high level SQLish query language. The data is modelled as
a directed labelled graph (RDF).
The goals of this project are to build a database that is capable of:
1. Supporting a graph oriented API via a textual query language ala
SQL.
2. Load/Reload an RDF file from a url into the database
3. Scalable to millions of nodes and triples.
4. Provide support for RDF Schemas.
5. Provide support for some basic forms of inferencing.
6. Provide both C and Perl access to the database.
7. The Perl philosophy applies : Simple things should be simple and
complex things should be possible.
