The SPARQL endpoint at http://dbpedia.org/sparql has a max result rows setting of 10.000 records on any query, but there are much more subjects with this property/value combo as per: select count district ?Company where { ?Company rdf:type dbo:Company. } which results in call-ret 0 64255 When you actually use curl on your query you get the following information returned: $ curl -I 'http://dbpedia.org/sparql/?default-graph-uri=http%3A%2F%2Fdbpedia.org&query=select++%3FCompany+where+%7B+%0D%0A%3FCompany+rdf%3Atype+dbo%3ACompany.%0D%0A%7D&format=text%2Fhtml' HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Fri, 08 Jan 2016 16:03:09 GMT Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 Content-Length: 1331298 Connection: keep-alive Vary: Accept-Encoding Server: Virtuoso/07.20.3215 (Linux) i686-generic-linux-glibc212-64 VDB X-SPARQL-default-graph: http://dbpedia.org X-SPARQL-MaxRows: 10000 Expires: Fri, 15 Jan 2016 16:03:09 GMT Cache-Control: max-age=604800 Accept-Ranges: bytes Where the X-SPARQL-MaxRows header indicates that the results is truncated. To resolve this limitation, the dbpedia endpoint can be called using a paging mechanism using the OFFSET XXX LIMIT YYY mechanism like this: select ?Company where { ?Company rdf:type dbo:Company. } OFFSET 0 LIMIT 10000 select ?Company where { ?Company rdf:type dbo:Company. } OFFSET 10000 LIMIT 10000 … … … select ?Company where { ?Company rdf:type dbo:Company. } OFFSET 60000 LIMIT 10000 Note that other endpoints may have different restrictions.
