For example, Allegrograph is able to keep in memory indexing for 1 billion triples (on a big machine)
We currently use graphql-compose as our abstraction layer. It's not perfect, but gets the job done and has let us experiment with SQL/ElasticSearch backends as well. https://graphql-compose.github.io/ Up for writing a mapper to Allegrograph and/or generic Solid store/search with me?
It's an ODM (object document mapper). They have good and bad sides, but never been able to do any abstraction that was better.
Also, I'm looking for any work and documentation build to bridge GraphQL or any HTTP APIs w/ Solid.
But it's a cultural change. It's much easier for people to move from 20th century databases to a property graph (like neo4J) than to a semantic graph - it's a very different way of thinking, and provides incredible advances
@RubenVerborgh gave a very good talk on the order of magnitude difference between graphql and sparql in this short talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LUF7plExdv8
Yea, I do love me a semantic graph but I've never built one for production. Hard to sell on any projects. Everyone in the community I have built wants a GraphQL API w/ OAuth 2. I have thought of GraphQL to SPARQL, but my team isn't super strong on data principles, so I am stuck with all the engineering if I want to make the leap.
There is no doubt that to fully capture the capability of the semantic way is a major cultural change - it took me a few years to make the transition myself. In any kind of engineering field, cultural change is hard. However, in the world of innovation, the people that make the leap first reap the rewards, and this technology is now ready for true scale
Half my team is JavaScript hipsters I can't get to learn Python. Team, if you are reading this, I still love you.
Javascript is fantastic on the browser side. For the seriously heavy lifting, not quite as much. Although the solid team has created the best javascript I've yet seen - so it's not so much the language as the approach to thinking about the problem that counts
https://github.com/solid/solid-platform I have been trying to compare solid platform implementations, but it is hard to figure out the status of support of features. Especially performance, scalability, security, LDP Search capabilities, and data import from other platforms.
Still hoping someone can help me understand the status of current solid platform implementations!

@mrhegemon - That question is hard to address in a chat-space. I'd suggest starting a page in the solid wiki (https://github.com/solid/node-solid-server/wiki), likely with some connection to the page of Solid compatible servers (https://github.com/solid/node-solid-server/wiki/Running-Test-Implementations-of-Solid-compatible-servers), and setting up a table of the sorts of features/functionality you want to compare (probably best as column headers) vs the implementations of which you're aware (probably best as row headers). Depending on the depth of discussion, It might make sense to treat each column as a section, and break such table into a textual stream...
As to MongoDB vs Allegrograph vs TDB (the storage component of Apache Jena) vs RDF4J vs Virtuoso vs other back-end stores. It may be worthwhile to also consider their basic architectures, vis-a-vis single-model vs multi-model and single-query-language vs multi-query-languages -- https://community.openlinksw.com/t/tabulated-relational-database-management-systems-rdbms-comparison/274
I'm interested in tools suitable for client side / static apps for use will Solid, SPARQL etc, and wonder if anyone has experience of or comments on React-static and gatsbyjs.org. Both seem suitable at first glance and could be used with @RubenVerborgh's React components I think (so LDflex very neatly) but I'm new to these frameworks having not done any serious front end stuff myself. Gatsby.js seems state of the art and trendy, and oriented towards GraphQL but I'm not sure if this is an advantage or taking us away from easier integration with RDF/SPARQL, and any other pros and cons. Any thoughts? I'm going to repost this to the forum, so reply there if you like: https://forum.solidproject.org/t/react-static-and-gatsby-js-frameworks/964?u=happybeing
Hi All! New to the solid framework and just diving in..I come from self taught LAMP and mostly to code solve issues with open source apps going back many years. Not a coder more UI and concept developer. I have an older project that needs a complete revamp and used a server model similar to PODS for members personal info. ( pods are also a wordpress plugin FYI) Hoping I can covert to PODS and reuse some of my older code. Any road maps -videos etc for non coders yet ? and is Solid ready for a complete music site system..? Thanks for any info links and guidance!
Is it possible to put ACL on a triple as opposed to a node? So that system based triples, like solid:account would be read only even to the account owner?
danke @gibsonf1 dir auch ! I' m trying to set up a solid server at solidweb.org and having issues: 1. mod_rewrite to force nonwww and https works but doesn' t seem to work with the reverse proxy needed. solution: this can also be done in apache2.conf vhost-section 2. accidentally I have touched fullchain.pem. started manually the server works but not as systemd-service. debugging complains and claims not found fullchain.pem although its there....... no solution yet... will dive into the solid-thang and this chat and help where I can because the project is FANTASTIC
@ewingson jump into the node-solid-server chat at https://gitter.im/solid/node-solid-server and someone should be able to help you track it down. you can also post some more detail about your issue at https://forum.solidproject.org
Hey folks! Been away from solid for a while but trying to get back into it. I've been looking at Apache Marmotta and have been wondering if it is Solid-compatible. It appears to use WebID and has a notion of profiles and ACLs but I'm not sure if they're the same as solid. Anyone know if it is?
BTW, Happy New Year!
Question: Is
yarn add rdflib an okay way to install rdflib.js? Problem is I see it's install 85 other library dependencies
@dirkesquire That is how JS ecosystem works today, I can’t say why 85 dependencies on rdflib.js but usually you get a ton of dependencies adding a js library, It has nothing to say if you have a propper build, where you shake off anything not used on production.
Yes its okay, just wanted to check 'rdflib' was the correct name to use as even capitalisation matters with npm install (example jquery vs jQuery).
I did a compare against npm install rdflib, and it installs the exact same amount of dependencies, so I am confident that 'yarn add rdflib' is correct now.

I also recommend to check out https://github.com/prettier/prettier
https://jsreport.io/best-javascript-frameworks-youre-not-using/ will for sure try out some new things in 2019. Svelte as you say looks very interesting
