RE: Linked Data Platform - Next

Startin’Blox build on Solid which in turn builds on LDP, so those aren’t really competitors per se.

The next closes “competitor” (though it’s also probably not…actually) that I’m aware of would be Hydra:
https://www.hydra-cg.com/spec/latest/core/


However, I’d fully expect one could mix the LDP and Hydra to good effect—as LDP does not include (much) in the way of hypermedia affordances and Hydra doesn’t (afaik) provide actual CRUD (or PUT, POST, DELETE) guidance.

I’d be curious to know if anyone knows of others, but LDP does seem to have “won the day” here—mostly because it’s “just” HTTP with very little added (and that’s fabulous! 😉).

Hello, we have integrated Apache Marmotta LDP into our human services data-centric platform.  What is the group's current consensus for the best future method for serving Linked Data restfully?  Is LDP a fully sufficient specification, and nothing more needs to be discussed :)  Or is there another method that competes with it, that better fulfills LDP's objectives? I know of Startin'Blox and Solid.  Thanks for the team's thoughts.

Perhaps survey how usage patterns have changed over time and adapt accordingly?
