Optional external triple storeVIVO can configured to use a different triple store for the bulk of its semantic data, so long as this triple store supports Web-based use of the SPARQL language to query and modify its data. If you elect to use a separate triple store, note that VIVO's MySQL database is still required for basic configuration and user account data. In order to connect VIVO to an external triple store, you will need to know two URIs: the store's endpoint URI for issuing SPARQL queries that read data, and its URI for issuing SPARQL UPDATE commands. These URIs are typically kept separate in order to make it easier to secure the triple store against unauthorized edits. With Sesame, for example, the update URI is usually the query endpoint URI with "/statements" appended. You will need to know these two URIs later when you specify runtime properties. |
