Overview

Get hands-on experience with SPARQL, the RDF query language that's become a key component of the semantic web.

Several open source and commercial tools already support SPARQL, and this introduction gets you started right away.

Begin with how to write and run simple SPARQL 1.1 queries, then dive into the language's powerful features and capabilities for manipulating the data you retrieve. Learn what you need to know to add to, update, and delete data in RDF datasets, and give web applications access to this data.

  • Understand SPARQL’s connection with RDF, the semantic web, and related specifications
  • Query and combine data from local and remote sources
  • Copy, convert, and create new RDF data
  • Learn how datatype metadata, standardized functions, and extension functions contribute to your queries
  • Incorporate SPARQL queries into web-based applications

    Great book on SPARQL with added bonus of great RDF/OWL summaries

    I have every book on semantic web technologies and the introduction to RDF/OWL is one of the easiest and best out there. I would recommend this book for anyone who wants to get a concise and painless summary of RDF/OWL.

    Since the book's title is 'Learning SPARQL', I guess I should get to that. DuCharme does a great job explaining SPARQL and, as important, how to use SPARQL in real-world applications.

    Overall, a great book and highly recommended.
