RDF HDT (Header, Dictionary, Triples) is a compact data structure and binary serialization format for RDF that keeps big datasets compressed to save space while maintaining search and browse operations. This is achieved by organizing and representing the RDF graph in terms of three main components: Header, Dictionary and Triples structure. The Header includes extensible metadata required to describe the RDF data set and its organization. The Dictionary gathers all the terms present in the RDF graph in a manner that permits rapid search and high levels of compression. The Triples component represents the structure of relationships of the RDF graph in a compressed form. It has previously been discussed whether HDT makes sense as just another serialization format, in which performance is a relatively minor issue, or to use it to store RDF data and query it directly. Recent work by Ruben Verborgh et al on http://linkeddatafragments.org/ makes a convincing case for the latter, in which case the C++ libraries would be excellent to have in Debian.
