Bio2RDF and Semantic Web Pipes

The Bio2RDF Servlet has been packaged with Semantic Web Pipes. It provides runtime support for pipes, without the designer. Pipes you design at either the public pipes website, or your own pipes webapp, will run inside your Bio2RDF server, providing another method for scripting your queries.

Once you download and install the Servlet you will be able to access the pipes functionality using URL's which look like the following:

http://localhost:8080/pipes/bio2rdf_subject_object_slicing/namespace=keywords/identifier=11

Each of the Parameter's in the pipe are entered using "name=value" combinations and put together using "/".

Download the latest Bio2RDF Servlet to experiment.

Bio2RDF's contribution to the GGG is on the map


I am very pleased to see that Bio2RDF contribution is now on the GGG map of linked data. A big thanks to all the data provider and the active members of the Bio2RDF group. All the SPARQL endpoints we provides are not there yet but it is a great beginning.
