More than a RDF Database —
an Enterprise Knowledge Graph platform.

 

An Enterprise Knowledge Graph platform is more than a RDF database. While both have roots in RDF, Stardog is a data management platform purpose-built for connecting data across your enterprise. 

No other company combines Graph, Inference and Virtualization to unify data based on its meaning, not location, so you can create a body of knowledge to support your business. The Global 2000 rely on Stardog to create a dynamic, reusable data fabric for answering complex queries across data silos and to power infinite use cases. Our customers see on average a 50-90% decrease in time to insight.

Stardog vs. RDF Databases

Create a body of knowledge to support your business and power its countless use cases with Stardog. Our Enterprise Knowledge Graph platform let's you transforming existing data infrastructure and compound the value of your existing investments like data lakes, catalogs, and integration platforms into dynamic data layers that can support countless applications and use cases, with no rip-and-replace requires. 

 


A future-proof solution for your enterprise 

IoT, unstructured data volume, increased external data sources, and hybrid multi-cloud environments are growing obstacles to your data strategy. Digital transformation demands rapid insight that other RDF vendors struggle to tackle because they are not built to address the complexity of the modern data landscape. Stardog is the only platform built to scale with your enterprise and its digitization. Create a resilient digital foundation for your enterprise, that drives cross department collaboration and powering infinite uses cases to creates a competitive advantage for your business. 

 

Mature virtualization means more cost-savings  and longterm scalability 

You can't achieve digital transformation effectively without reliable virtualization. While some RDF vendors say they have virtualization capabilities, Stardog’s was the first to market powerful graph-based virtualization and thus is the only cost effective solution as you digitize. 

Plus, we are the only platform on the market that allows you to connect to such a wide range of sources, supporting over 30 Virtual Graph connectors to popular data sources, as well as other SQL-based sources through a JDBS driver. Other vendors do not come close.

Superior inference capability built for performance and collaboration

No other vendor uses just-in-time reasoning like Stardog, all use forward-chain-reasoning, which is more time-consuming, and riskier. We inference at load time, so you’re always using the most up-to-date data. And, unlike other solutions, we allow you to reason over virtualized data, so you never need to migrate or copy it. 

Plus our reasoning method allows for multi-tenancy schemas, meaning you can have multiple different views represented in the same Knowledge Graph. No other vendor can do that, but with Stardog you can drive  ample collaboration across business divisions. 

 

Data quality management for faster troubleshooting

Our toolset (ICV and SHACL) prevents bad data from being written to your knowledge graph. No other RDF vendors support both ICV and SHACL.

The functionality is also highly explanable — we take you right to the rule that makes the data false, so it’s easier to troubleshoot.

Connect and query data of any structure

Our Knowledge Graph connects to data sources within your company, enriches the data by finding connections across all sources, and creates a human- and machine-understandable output.

Stardog accesses data with Connectors to all major SQL systems and the most popular NoSQL databases. In addition, our BITES pipeline extracts concepts from unstructured data like research papers, resumes, and regulatory documents, further enriching the Knowledge Graph. 

Stardog supports semi-structured (non-tabular) data sources like MongoDb and Cassandra. Unlike other platforms you can both materialize and virtualize your semistructured data with Stardog. Plus, it's the only platform to come with LPG functionality via RDF. 

 

 

 

Put unified data in the hands of more analysts with our BI/SQL support

Put your unified data in the hands of more analysts with Stardog’s new BI/SQL server, which provides a straightforward connection to SQL-based Business Intelligence (BI) platforms like Tableau and Power BI. Our BI/SQL server provides broader access for subject matter experts and citizen data scientists to investigate their data. We were the first to market with this capability that is enhanced by our top-of-line virtualization.

FAQs 

Does Stardog have a free IDE?

We provide tooling to make your work easier. Manage your Enterprise Knowledge Graph with Stardog Studio, our free IDE. 

Why is Stardog's just-in-time reasoning more scalable than forward-chain reasoning?

Forward-chaining reasoning (or load-time reasoning) is less flexible, more time-consuming, and riskier than Stardog’s just-in-time reasoning. Stardog inferences (performs reasoning) at QUERY time, meaning you’re using the most up-to-date data. 

While load-time inference might work in a static world, that isn't our world. Digital transformation efforts simply must be more resilient to change.

Query-time inference is one of the keys that differentiates Stardog because it elegantly separates compute from storage. 

Does Stardog have NLP?

In Stardog, NLP is embedded. Our NLP pipeline, BITES, identifies and extracts concepts from unstructured data and adds those data relationships directly into the Knowledge Graph.
