Alessandro Adamou resolved STANBOL-332.
---------------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed
    
> Have OntoNet manage graphs in Clerezza natively.

>                 Key: STANBOL-332
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STANBOL-332
>             Project: Stanbol
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Ontology Manager
>            Reporter: Alessandro Adamou
>            Priority: Minor
>
> OntoNet has been managing scopes, spaces and sessions so far, by creating OWL 
> API objects that live throughout the whole Stanbol lifecycle, and are 
> serialized for Web Services.
> The current implementation creates OWL ontology objects that persist in 
> memory even when they are not being used. This has the advantage to provide 
> an axiom-oriented view on RDF graphs, which is very useful for applications 
> and users that dig OWL(2). 
> However, it is also inefficient for a number of reasons:
> - memory occupation with data that essentially replicate the content of the 
> persistence layer
> - no slick reaction to changes in low-level graphs. If an imported ontology 
> is updated, or a new import is added, pre-existing axioms should be 
> re-interpreted (e.g. for classification and other reasoning tasks). This 
> generally doesn't happen, unless the ontologies are serialized and re-loaded 
> in the OWL API ontology manager.
> - non OWL-aware applications that use the OntoNet Java API are forced to 
> handle OWL if they need to access RDF graphs.
> An ideal solution would be to avoid loading ontologies in OWLOntologyManager 
> objects when ontology scopes and sessions are set up. Ontology network 
> information could be stored in the Clerezza TcManager just like every other 
> RDF graph, and only when the content of a scope is requested as an OWL 
> ontology it is brought up that way, to be then garbage-collected.
