Another tool with might be worth looking at is Karma 
(http://usc-isi-i2.github.io/karma/).  It’s read data from several different 
formats, including a relational database.   Then one loads in one or more 
ontologies and it provides a graphical ui to map source data to the ontology.

I am also the project maintainer for a project called VIVO-Harvester 
(https://github.com/vivo-project/VIVO-Harvester).  It is a suite of tools for 
ingesting data from a variety of sources into an instance of VIVO 
(http://vivoweb.org/) , a semantic web application.   The data fetcher, 
transformation, and transfer tools could be used to create RDF from a variety 
of sources and does not necessarily have to be used for ingesting data into 
VIVO.

Subject: Alternatives to D2RQ to map relational databases content in RDF


Hello,

Besides D2RQ, another interresting tools to expose a relational database 
content in RDF : Ontop<http://ontop.inf.unibz.it/> (University of Bolzen, 
Italy) and DataLift<http://datalift.org/>.

Hi,

i want to subscribe to Jena mailing list.

Hi,

I'm Jiomekong, phd student at university of Yaounde 1 and i also teach
computer science at University of Yaounde 1. I'm JAVA EE developer.

I'm working on using ontology to provide better information to users
of epidemiological platform.

The ontology is constructed and i want to access postges database using jena.

Is it possible ?

Best regards



If you mean, you have existing data in a PostgreSQL database and want to view 
it as RDF via your ontology, you'll need a tool like D2RQ as well. This maps 
between RDF and views of the database.

If you want to store RDF in PostgreSQL, then jena-sdb will work for moderate 
sized data.
