Semantic Web Training in Canada

The Semantic Web is a collaborative movement led by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) that promotes common formats for data on the World Wide Web. The Semantic Web provides a common framework that allows data to be shared and reused across application, enterprise, and community boundaries.

Blazegraph is an open source, Java-based RDF graph database for storing and representing data with complex relationships. It supports Blueprints and RDF/SPARQL 1.1. In this instructor-led, live training, participants will learn how to use Blazegraph to capture complex data in graph format for retrieval from a number of sample applications. All exercises will be carried out hands-on in a live-lab environment. By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Install and configure Blazegraph in standalone mode, clustered mode (optional) or embedded mode (optional)
• Create, test and deploy a sample application to query complex data in a Blazegraph data store
• Understand how to leverage GPU (graphics processing unit) to accelerate computations

Audience

• Developers

This instructor-led, live training in Canada (online or onsite) is aimed at technical persons who wish to query RDF data stored in a Semantic Web database. By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Understand the difference between semantic web data and relational data.
• Query public datasets based on Semantic Web standards.
• Model data for querying with SPARQL.
• Transition a website's data to semantic web linked data.
• Run SPARQL queries from within an existing application.
