Linked Data does just that.

Precisely. But I wouldn't (with my old ODBC developer hat on) have got it from your text.


(I understand that it's a different thing you were aiming at with the mention of URIBurner, and...)

What I didn't go into (deliberately) in the post is the ability to build Linked Data views over relational data sources using R2RML [3].

Also true. In this context that could be a lot more comprehensible and relevant (not putting down URIBurner and similar services).
But note, the sponger cartridges are just drivers for turning basic Web resources into linked data i.e., making any Web resource a structured query target via SQL, SPARQL, or SPASQL (mix of both query langauges). The end product is keys (in the form of Linked Data URIs) for all the data in those data spaces.

Okay, I'll tweak the post or make an R2RML specific post showing how that completes the journey to a new and extremely powerful DBMS exploitation frontier in the form of RDBMS agnostic views. These views expose the historically under exploited Intensional aspect of DBMS technology, across disparate RDBMS engines :-)
