3.0.0-incubating

The goal of Apache Marmotta is to provide an open implementation of a Linked Data Platform that can be used, extended and deployed easily by organizations who want to publish Linked Data or build custom applications on Linked Data.

Right now the project is being setting up installed in the Apache Software Foundation infrastructure. The team has worked really hard to have available to download the first release under incubator. Check the development section for further details how we work or subscribe to our mailing lists to follow the project’s day to day.

Features

  • Read-Write Linked Data
  • RDF triple store with transactions, versioning and rule-base reasoning
  • SPARQL and LDPath query languages
  • Transparent Linked Data Caching
  • Integrated security mechanisms

Background

Marmotta comes as a continuation of the work in the Linked Media Framework project. LMF is an easy-to-setup server application that bundles some technologies such as Apache Stanbol or Apache Solr to offer some advanced services. After the release 2.6, the Read-Write Linked Data server code and some related libraries have been set aside to incubate Marmotta within the The Apache Software Foundation. LMF still keeps exactly the same functionality, but now bundling Marmotta too.

Incubation

Apache Marmotta is an effort undergoing incubation at The Apache Software Foundation (ASF), sponsored by the Apache Incubator PMC. Incubation is required of all newly accepted projects until a further review indicates that the infrastructure, communications, and decision making process have stabilized in a manner consistent with other successful ASF projects. While incubation status is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness or stability of the code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be fully endorsed by the ASF.
