Semantic web is a way to represent and manipulate informations that allows very high flexibility on the way the information are aggregated, accessed and presented. To leverage existing information base we need ways to get these information and translate them into a semantic form. There many standard ontologies broadly accepted like FOAF (for representing person data and person relationships), DOAP (for representing project data), Dublin Core (for representing document data) etc.... The act of transforming information from a proprietary format to a semantic representation is called rdf-alization. An ESB JBI can be the right integration middleware to perform this task because it can easily collect data in proprietary format from different sources and, by redefining rdf-alizers as JBI component, can feed semantic web enabled application.
While listening, during the question and answer portion at the end, the speaker mentioned he would posted the URL. Does anyone have the URL he spoke of? For that matter, there were a few additional URLs that would be nice to know as well.
There was mention of some type of visualizing tool (I think said dbean) but I can not find anything here.
I thought I heard something called MocaBean but can't find anything on this either.
