RE: Generate r2rml mapping document

Thanks for the quick answer. I'll chase up on this offline.

You may recall that LinkedBrainz originally used 'native' D2RQ and indeed found 'virtual SPARQL endpoints' of insufficient performance, hence the ETL-based approach, which is now supported by extracting and transforming the postgresql data via R2RML and loading it into Virtuoso Open Source.

Cheers,

Barry

Barry,

The R2RML support is fairly complete, but not as well-tested as the rest of D2RQ.

The main missing feature is support for named graphs.

It works well for creating RDF dumps of the DB (using D2RQ's dump-rdf command). Virtual SPARQL endpoints over the DB *work*, but are very slow, as even fairly basic optimisations are still missing from the R2RML engine.

Best,
Richard
