Industry 2: Integrating Enterprise Data with Semantic Technologies

The Semantic Web has reached a level of maturity that allows RDF and OWL to be adopted by large commercial software companies. Many of the products that are based on these standards promise the ability to provide more effective solutions to the increasing IT complexity that many industries are facing. This presentation will describe Oracle's interest in being an early adopter of Semantic Web technologies, as well as providing a technical overview of the RDF Data Model in the latest release of the Oracle Database. Experiences gained from implementing Semantic Web technologies will also be provided.
