Oxigraph is a graph database implementing the SPARQL standard. It’s designed to provide a compliant, safe, and fast graph database based on the RocksDB key-value store.
The software is written in Rust. It also provides a set of utility functions for reading, writing, and processing RDF files.
This is free and open source software.
Key Features
- Implements SPARQL Query, SPARQL Update, and SPARQL Federated Query.
- Supports RDF serialization formats including Turtle, TriG, N-Triples, N-Quads, RDF/XML, and JSON-LD.
- Supports SPARQL query result formats including XML, JSON, CSV, and TSV.
- Standalone command-line tool for manipulating RDF data.
- Can spawn a web server implementing SPARQL 1.1 Protocol and SPARQL 1.1 Graph Store Protocol.
- Python bindings via pyoxigraph.
- JavaScript bindings packaged using WebAssembly.
- Provides standalone Rust crates for RDF data structures, parsing, serialization, SPARQL evaluation, and optimization.
- Includes preliminary support for RDF and SPARQL 1.2 drafts.
