Hi everyone,
I’ve got what I think might be a very basic question. Looking forward to
learning the answer!
I need to store some text in my graph. I would expect that text to be quite
repetitive such that many triples will want to point to the same bit of text:
ex:myExample ex:hasText “admin” .
ex:yourExample ex:hasText “admin” .
ex:theirExample ex:hasText “admin .
It would be no problem to create a node for that specific bit of text, such
that we could rewrite this as:
ex:myExample ex:hasText ex:someText-admin .
ex:yourExample ex:hasText ex:someText-admin .
ex:theirExample ex:hasText ex:someText-admin .
ex:someText-admin ex:value “admin” .
It complicates the model a tiny bit, but I’m fine doing it. I just want to
make sure that it makes good sense from a performance or footprint perspective.
Maybe Jena is already doing this behind the scenes? If that is the case, I’d
probably prefer to keep it simple and use the former method.
Any thoughts?
Adam
