KBox — Transparently Shifting Query Execution on Knowledge Graphs to the Edge
Edgard Marx, Ciro Baron, Tommaso Soru, Sören Auer · 2017
The Semantic Web architecture choices lead to a tremendous amount of information published on the Web. However, to query and build applications on top of Linked Open Data is still significantly challenging. In this work, we present Knowledge Box (KBox), an approach for transparently shifting query execution on Knowledge Graphs to the edge. We show that our approach makes the consumption of Knowledge Graphs more reliable and faster than the formerly introduced methods. In practice, KBox demands less time and resources to setup than traditional approaches, while being twice as fast as SPARQL endpoints, even when serving a single client.
