Re: Discovering a query endpoint associated with a given Linked Data resource

Hi Nandana,

I guess VoID would be the best fit

In case of LDF you could use

<...> void:uriLookupEndpoint <http://fragments.dbpedia.org/2014/en?subject=>

But wether these exists in practice? Probably not. I'd leave it up to the dereference publisher to provide this triple in te response, rather than doing the .well_known thing.

Best,

Miel

In some cases, it might be possible that the returned graph could be a subgraph of a named graph / default graph of an RDF dataset. The client wants to discover if a query endpoint that exposes the relevant dataset, if one is available.
