In view of the fact that there are two sides to the RDF coin (Data, Schema) and that Sergey has invited conversation in regards to effective storage techniques for the data, I would like to (re-)open the conversation that has thus far (in my limited awareness) been overlooked. There are three (3) dimensions to consider: RDF Schemas describe the data type and relationships. RDF data defines the instances of the schema declarations. The 3rd dimension describes the normalized domain of the first two dimensions. I don't believe/agree/assume that you can effectively store content (RDF data) without regard to the domain described in the schema. In other words there is a schema (read normalized tables) that applies to the domain of the RDF schema, and thus to the RDF data. Anyone? -- Frank V. Castellucci
