2. What is Data?
Subject Observation Representation.
Basically:
Every “Observation Subject” has a
Name, discernible Attributes, and
“Attribute Values”.
© 2008 OpenLink Software, All rights reserved.
3. What is Structured Data?
Schema Constrained Data Representation
Where the following are human and/or machine
discernible:
Unique Subject Name
Subject Attributes
Subject Attribute Values.

4. CSV based Structured Data
Entity,Attribute,Value
#France, #Type, #PopulatedPlace
#France, #hasLabel, ”France”
#France, #hasCapital, #Paris
#Paris, #Type, #PopulatedPlace
#Paris, #hasLabel, ”Paris”
#PopulatedPlace, #Type, #Place
© 2008 OpenLink Software, All rights reserved.
5. TSV based Structured Data
Entity<TAB>Attribute<TAB>Value
#France<TAB>#Type<TAB>#PopulatedPlace
#France<TAB>#hasLabel<TAB>”France”
#France<TAB>#hasCapital<TAB>#Paris
#Paris<TAB>#Type<TAB>#PopulatedPlace
#Paris<TAB>#hasLabel<TAB>”Paris”

7. What is Linked Data?
Basically, Hyperdata!
Enhanced Structured Data
Representation
Via
Hyperlinks.
© 2008 OpenLink Software, All rights reserved.
8. What Are Hyperlinks?
Live References To Content.
These References my be local (Green
Hyperlinks from Windows Help)
Or
Network aware (Blue Hyperlinks as per World
Wide Web & Other HTTP Networks).
© 2008 OpenLink Software, All rights reserved.
9. Local Linked Data using URIs

12. SQL Query Language Benefits?
Declarative Query Language for Access,
Manipulation, and Definition of
Structured Data Stored in Relational
Database Management Systems
(RDBMS)
© 2012 OpenLink Software, All rights reserved.
14. SPARQL Query Language Benefits?
Declarative Query Language for
Access, Manipulation, and
Definition of Linked Data based on
the Entity-Attribute-Value/RDF
Data Model.
© 2012 OpenLink Software, All rights reserved.
15. SPARQL Protocol Benefits
HTTP based Protocol (Web Service)
for executing SPARQL commands
against Public or Private Linked
Data Sources.
© 2012 OpenLink Software, All rights reserved.
16. SQL Query Language Challenges
Access to Data outside Relational
Database Management Systems.
© 2012 OpenLink Software, All rights reserved.
18. Virtuoso ODBC Driver Benefits?
Cross Platform ODBC Driver that
treats Linked Big Data on the Web
(or elsewhere) like any another
ODBC accessible RDBMS!
© 2012 OpenLink Software, All rights reserved.
19. How Do I Get Going?
Download, install, and experience the power of coherent
integration of disparate data sources, data access protocols,
and data representation formats.
In an nutshell, commence exploitation of powerful business
intelligence, socially enhanced collaboration, data
virtualization, and entity analytics without writing a line of code!
Turn "Big Data" into exploitable "Smart Data"
without compromise!
© 2012 OpenLink Software, All rights reserved.
20. How Does Virtuoso Expose LOD Cloud
Data To ODBC Clients?
Creation of ODBC accessible SQL Views using
SPASQL (SPARQL inside SQL) that targets local
data
Ditto via SPARQL-FED (Federated SPARQL) for
external SPARQL endpoints.
Example instances include:
DBpedia (Linked Data version of Wikipedia content and LOD Cloud nexus)
URIBurner Service for “on the fly” transformation of data from: LinkedIn, Facebook,
Twitter, Google+, Freebase, Disqus etc.
Live Linked Open Data LOD Cloud Cache.
© 2012 OpenLink Software, All rights reserved.
21. Demo Query Tools
Microsoft Access (Windows)
Filemaker (Mac OS X)
Tibco SpotFire (Windows)
Tableau Deskop (Windows)
SAP Crystal Reports (Windows)
HTML5 based ODBC Explorer (Browser) – requires local ODBC
Driver Manager
HTML5 based XMLA Explorer (Browser) – no local ODBC Driver
Manager required
Virtuoso Conductor
Virtuoso iSQL
Any other ODBC compliant tools that offers a SQL Query Editor.
© 2012 OpenLink Software, All rights reserved.
22. Sample SPARQL Endpoints
Live Virtuoso Demo Server – Focal Point (SPARQL and
HTML5 XMLA-ODBC Client) for all live demos in this presentation
DBpedia - Structured Data rendition of Wikipedia content
Linked Open Data Cloud Cache – majority of datasets published to
the LOD cloud
URIBurner – Live Linked Data Transformation Service for Web Pages
& Web 2.0 Services
Health.Data.Gov – U.S. Govt. Health Dept. Information Portal
Data.Gov.UK – UK Government Open Data in Linked Data form
Reegle – Pan European Renewable Energy Information Portal
OpenEI – U.S. Govt. Energy Dept. Energy Information Portal
Nature.com – Nature Publishing .
© 2012 OpenLink Software, All rights reserved.
24. How It Works
Construct or Locate SPARQL Query of interest
Verify Query against its original SPARQL Endpoint
Go to a Virtuoso SPARQL endpoint and execute a Federated
SPARQL (SPARQL-FED) variant of query
Using any ODBC compliant application, execute SPARQL pass-
through queries by placing the pragma “SPARQL” before your Basic or
Federated SPARQL query text.
