Hi Kumar, The DRI Catalogue used at the UK National Archives uses a RESTful web service built on top of the Jena stack to - exactly as John says - provide access to the information held in RDF without the user (or application in this case) needing to know anything at all about the underlying technology or its data structures. It means that should the need arise, the underlying technology can be replaced without users (or applications) needing to know.
You can read more about this approach here https://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/documents/information-management/xml-london-tna-rw.pdf Rob On Wed, Sep 9, 2015 at 7:40 PM, kumar rohit <kumar.en...@gmail.com> wrote: > Yes John, I want examples of REST web services which site on top a Jena > implementation which contains data in owl/rdf.
