Hello to all,
My question is probably a rhetorical one...
The company I work for, received a request for a system based on "semantic
web" and "Virtual distributed databases".
As I searched the net I understood the basic concept of semantic web and
virtual distributed databases (based on RDF standards and XML), but my question to you all is if perl has any support for this kind of
applications .
Is there a way to develop in perl this kind of applications?
Though I haven't done anything with RDF in particular there are lots of modules in Perl that can handle XML. Pretty much any application is doable in Perl, whether it is a good idea and how much is already available to build are other questions. One place to start is CPAN, and the following look promising:
http://search.cpan.org/~dpokorny/RDF-Core-0.31/ http://search.cpan.org/~zooleika/Class-RDF-0.20/
Since this would most likely be a networking app and a daemon, if that is the case I would suggest POE as a framework:
http://poe.perl.org
But this has a pretty steep learning curve.
Thank you all,
Good luck,
CO
