Apache Marmotta is an Open Platform for Linked Data whose goal is to enable organizations to publish and build custom applications based on Linked Data.[1] Marmotta is one of the reference projects early implementing the new Linked Data Platform [2][3] recommendation that is being developed by W3C.

History

On 3 December 2012 Marmotta enters incubation,[4] graduating as Apache Top Level Project on 20 November 2013.[5]

During this time the project has published some releases:

  • On 26 April 2013 Marmotta 3.0.0-incubating is released.[6]
  • On 3 October 2013 Marmotta 3.1.0-incubating is released.[7]

Apache Marmotta has been contributed by Salzburg Research from the Linked Media Framework,[8][9][10] and follows up its versioning, hence starting at version 3.0.0.

Components

The project is split in several parts: the platform itself, which includes full Read Write Linked Data, SPARQL, Reasoning, and basic security. In addition to the platform, the project develops some libraries can also be used separately:

  • KiWi, a Triplestore built on top of a relational database.
  • LDPath, a path language to navigate across Linked Data resources.
  • LDClient, a Linked Data client that allows retrieval of remote resources via different protocols by making use of pluggable adapters (data providers) that wrap other data sources (such as YouTube and Facebook).[11]
  • LDCache, a cache system that automatically retrieves resources by internally using LDClient.
