Federated SPARQL queries - bobdc.blog

  • I recently discovered the SERVICE extension that Jena adds to SPARQL, letting you send subqueries off to multiple SPARQL endpoints and then combine the results.
  • Two parts of this trick are non-standard SPARQL, but may become part of SPARQL 1.1: subqueries and the SERVICE keyword.

kurtisrandom: Sparqling a funk legend

  • Luckily my good friend, former colleague, and Semantic Web mentor Yves Raimond created a SPARQL endpoint that queries the Musicbrainz database. The service is hosted on DBtune.org/musicbrainz and a web interface can be found here.
  • The second line will fill the variable ?songs with URIs for entities for which Maceo Parker is the "foaf:maker". In DBtune/musicbrainz the foaf:maker property is use to associate a song with the song writer.
