Semantic Web databases need a scripting language for server side programming. We will demonstrate that Javascript has all the power and flexibility to be such a language. In addition we'll show how scripts and queries can be turned into named web services.
During this presentation we will demonstrate our Javascript compiler and a Javascript library that can perform all the basic handling of RDF quads, indices, and databases. This server side Javascript can also include SPARQL and Prolog and has rich functionality for temporal and spatial functions and can be used to write graph based algorithms that will work at server speed.

Franz has implemented a MongoDB interface to AllegroGraph database to give Javascript programmers both joins and the semantic web capabilities. Using this approach JSON objects are automatically translated into triples and both the MongoDB query language and SPARQL work against these objects. Another goal of MongoGraph is to make the freetext engine of their graph database as easy to search as Solr/Lucene.

Boston - February 22 - 24
CSHALS is the premier annual event focused on the use of semantic technologies in the pharmaceutical industry, including hospitals/healthcare institutions and academic research labs. With an expanded scope that includes the emerging field of data science, CSHALS is the place to be in 2012! Topics covered by CSHALS 2012 span the continuum between standards development and big data workflows - the scope between Life Science data representation and its analysis.

Franz Inc., the leading supplier of Graph Database technology, and TopQuadrant Inc., the leader in semantic data integration, have announced their extended partnership to deliver solutions for the Exploration & Production Information Management Associationҳ (EPIM) Reporting Hub.
For the past four years, EPIM has been working with the industry solving its problem of collecting, normalizing, validating, analyzing and reporting data about activities of the North Sea oil and gas drillers. To realize the full potential of the information about $40 billion worth of petroleum produced annually on the Norwegian Continental Shelf, EPIM envisioned the ReportingHub as standards based information-exchange solution.

Intel - Big Memory, Big Data, and the Semantic Web. "Techniques like MapReduce and NoSQL products based on them are fine for some problems," said Mitch Shults, Mission-Critical Segment Strategist, Intel Data Center Group. "To achieve high performance against meaningful amounts of triplestore data, however, you just can't afford to be traipsing all over the network to pull things together. This result demonstrates the incredible value that affordable large-scale, big-memory server platforms built around the Intel Xeon E7 server platform can deliver for next-generation workloads like triple stores."

Semanticweb.com: What One Trillion Means for the Semantic Web. Mitchell Shults commented on the significance of Franz's recent success loading one trillion triplestores. Shults writes, Triplestores are perfect for making sense out of extremely complex data. However, a triplestore is only useful if massive quantities of information can be loaded, updated and effectively queried in a reasonable amount of time. That is why Franz's Technology announcement is so interesting. Read the rest of the article here.
