DATA-GRID is developing a suite of data management components
to support Web 2.0 applications, and data-centric SOA
services:
- The OWL Schema Designer™ is used to create the DBMS schema — the list of OWL classes whose instances the DBMS can store.
- Active_OWL™ is an open source implementation of the OWL DBMS API designed to be used by Ruby on Rails programmers. It replaces
the default Rails combination of O/R mapping library plus Relational DBMS.
- The OWL Cache™ maps calls to the OWL DBMS™ API down to an underlying Relational DBMS. Unlike the current Rails O/R mapping library,
it completely hides the underlying RDBMS; the Ruby programmer never needs to drop into SQL.
- The OWL DBMS™ is a full, ground-up 64-bit DBMS product that implements the OWL API directly.
- The GRID DBMS™ is a distributed DBMS that is designed to support collaborative
research projects involving compute clusters at different locations on the Web, each running
either the DATA-GRID OWL DBMS™, or the OWL Cache™ software. It supports a virtual, Web-wide OWL database.
