Heather Hedden, Senior Consultant at Enterprise Knowledge, presented “Enterprise Knowledge Graphs: The Importance of Semantics” on May 9, 2024, at the annual Data Summit in Boston. In her presentation, Hedden describes the components of an enterprise knowledge graph and provides further insight into the semantic layer – or knowledge model – component, which includes an ontology and controlled vocabularies, such as taxonomies, for controlled metadata. While data experts tend to focus on the graph database components (RDF triple store or a label property graph), Hedden emphasizes they should not overlook the importance of the semantic layer.

Intrigued by why some of the world's largest companies (Netflix, Google, Cisco, Twitter, Uber etc) are using gRPC? In this demo based talk we delve into the world of gRPC in .Net, what it does and why we should use it. We compare the interface with both Rest and graphQL. We will show you how to implement grpc server-side in .net and in the web. Finally, I will show you how the tooling helps you deliver powerful interfaces and interact with them quickly and simply.
