Oracle RDF graph DB data modeling

I am wondering how Oracle RDF graph DB modeling the attributes of the node or relationship? Suppose a node (dubject or object) is a person which has a lot of attriubtes, say age, birthdate, ssn, address, etc, it sounds to me Oracle RDF cannot assoicate attriubtes to the node and instead it just models each attribute as a node in the graph. Is it common practice to include so many attributes in the graph database?

Hi,
RDF (and Oracle's RDF offering) in general allows associating as many attributes as you need to nodes in the graph. You are right in saying that those attributes are
modeled as RDF resources (nodes). This promotes sharing of resources.
e.g. The first two triples associate the same street resource with two individuals. The third triple
provides some descriptive information about this street resource.
<urn:John>  <urn:livesOnStreet>  <urn:StreetXYZ>
<urn:Mary>  <urn:livesOnStreet>  <urn:StreetXYZ>
<urn:StreetXYZ>  rdfs:comment  "Sunset Rd. .... "
It is usually up to an application to determine how many attributes to use. The underlying RDF graph model supports
multiple attributes and Oracle's RDF implementation supports multiple attributes.
It is also possible to store attributes in a separate relational table and use a SQL to join the graph query results
with your relational data.
Hope it helps,

  • ORACLE reports Build 10g - Data Model - query - If statement in Alias ?

    It is no problem, you can automatically change the complete query before the report is running, which delivers you different kind of values. But the alias names does not change in the group of the data-model, although two query are running with different alias names at different times. In the data model you see the alias names of the first implemented select statement, which are the column fields in the layout.

    Client is any server that connects to a database. I am assuming that CA will be installed on a Windows XP machine and it will connect to a remote database on another server. I am assuming since you have not provided any details.

  • Oracle rdf report format

    I want a help form you . If you can, please share.
    In a oracle .rdf report, suppose data are arranged in this format, like this
    RED     5
    RED     6
    RED     10
    GREEN     15
    GREEN     2
    BLUE     10
    BLUE     5
    but now, I want the report like this format:-
    RED     5
    ''     6
    ''     10
    GREEN     15
    "     2
    BLUE     10
    "     5
    How can i do this ? I am waiting for your early reply.

    In Data Model, find the group that contains your data.
    In that group:
    1. create a formula column named for example ”CF_set_value_color”
    2. create a placeholder column named for example ”CP_show_value_color” of VARCHAR2
    Outside the group; create a stand alone placeholder named ”CP_last_value_color” of VARCHAR2
    Now, create a PL/SQL procedure for your formula column ”CF_set_value_color:
    ”color” should be replaced with the name of the column that returns RED, GREEN or BLUE..
    function CF_set_value_colorFormula return Number is
    begin
    -- First row
    if :cp_last_value_color is null then
    -- Set values for placeholders
    :cp_last_value_color := :color;
    :cp_show_value_color := :color;
    else
    -- Second row and beyond
    if :cp_last_value_color = :color then
    -- If last color is the same as the current, show "
    :cp_show_value_color := '"';
    else
    -- If last color is NOT the same as this one, show new color
    :cp_last_value_color := :color; -- Set for comparison of next row
    :cp_show_value_color := :color;
    end if;
    end if;
    return 1;
    end;
    For each row the query retrieves, the value of “CP_show_value_color” will be RED, ”, ”, GREEN, ”, BLUE, ”
    Use that column for output instead of ”color” and it should work just fine.

  • Physical Data Model For GL

    Hi Experts,
    I am new to Oracle Apps, I need Data Model for GL tables..from wherer we can get it.
    Please suggest !
    Regards
    S

    Hi,
    As you aware major part of GL is based on Chart of Account, Calander (GL Period) and Currency, you can check all tables related to these.
    You can use below query to get those tables :
    select from all_tables where table_name like 'GL%' and owner='GL'*
    and table_name not like 'GL_ALLOC%' and table_name not like 'GL_CONS%'
    Please do refer the doc suggested by the other expert in this thread..
    Regards,
    S.P DASH
    N.B : We believe you put a GL question in a wrong folder/Thread (Procurement) :).. you could have received a better response had it been in Finance folder.. :)

  • How to integrate the Data modeler in Sql developer

    Hi
    How can we integrate the data modeler into sql developer and use the data modeler?
    Thanks

    Integrating different oracle products (SQL Developer [Data Modeller], JDeveloper, ...) on platforms like Eclipse, Netbeans, JDeveloper Framework is a really missing feature.
    JDeveloper has a good approach for integrated Java and database development, but has not immediate benefits from from other development streams like SQL Developer.
    On daily work we must use more than three different tools for most common task
    - editing stored functions, procedures and packages with SQL-Developer (code formatter in Jdeveloper produces sometimes UNREADABLE code ( So we are using TOAD instead ). Why can't Jdeveloper use SQL-Developer formatting tools in bug fixed verrions from 1.5.5?
    - database modelling with SQL Developer Data Modeler without PLSQL package support ???
    - database development with JDeveloper, ADF and offline database model without capabilities for logical databse models
    Please put them all together!

  • Including table and column comment in the Data Modeler

    Hi all,
    I used Oracle's SQL Developer Data Modeler (Version 3.0.0.665) and created a data model for my project. I e-mailed a PDF format of the data model to our Systems Analyst. She asked if I could re-create the data model and include table and column comments. Is this a possibility and if so how is this done?
    Thank you for your input,
    Seyed

    Hi Kent,
    Using the information you provided and Oracle’s Working with SQL Developer Modeler Reporting I did the following:
    1) Created a Reporting Schema User
    1.1) Using my Oracle 10g Personal Edition, I created a new user and gave him DBA administrative privileges
    2) Exported Relational Design to Reporting Schema
    2.1) Opened the Relational Design
    2.2) Exported it to the Reporting Schema. Note, I never got a message ‘Design has been exported successfully’.
    3) Reviewed the Report Results
    I think exporting the relational design was not successful, and didn’t get any error messages. Had step 2 completed successfully, I would have reviewed the Report Results in SQL Developer. By the way, I know I have marked this topic as closed, but would like to learn your method too.
    Thank you for your help,

  • Oracle Spatial RDF data model and database edition

    Hi: Can some one please let me know the Oracle edition that support the RDF data mdoel.
    According to my understaning it is Oracle 10g Enterprsie edition, with the Spatial option. If this is true; is installing the enterprise edition will already give me the Spatial option? or do I have to isntall the Spatial data model as a seperate module. Besides this is installing the Spatial data model already give the RDF capability, or again RDF is a sepeare module that need to be installed seperately?
    Thanks in advance
    Regards,
    Rashid.

    Hi Axel,
    You could use the download of Oracle 10g available on OTN at http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/semantic_technologies/index.html. This can be used free for development, but not for deployment. As long as you use it just for development during your thesis and do not deploy it in a production environment it should be OK to use the free download.
    Along with the free download we recommend also using the patch (RDF specific patch for 10.2.0.1 database) that is available by clicking on 'software' on the same page.

  • Converting .rdf data model to xml output thru conc program

    Dear Members :
    I am trying to convert .rdf data model(Reports 10g) into XML tag, by creating Concurrent Program Report Definition, setting output type as XML.But when running the CP, getting following error:
    XML Parsing Error: XML declaration not well-formed
    Location: http://oel4.localdomain:8000/OA_CGI/FNDWRR.exe?temp_id=2393533895

    All I want is save output in Oracle Apps (11i) as .XML to be used later for XML publisher, in MS Word. The above procedure should have worked fine, as seen, in other posts.
    Any clue, please ?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Unable to create a connection in data modeler with oracle 9i

    While creating a connection to my 9i db I am getting the following error
    Status : Failure -Test failed: oracle.i18n.text.converter.CharacterConverterOGS.getInstance(I)Loracle/i18n/text/converter/CharacterConverter;

    Hi,
    This problem when importing from Data Dictionary can occur intermittently if you have the Oracle 9i or 10g database software installed on your computer.
    Ivan provided a workaround in a previous message in this forum Re: Error when testing database connection :
    Try to create a batch file (datamodeler.bat) under Data Modeler installation folder and put the following two lines in it:
    set ORACLE_HOME=%CD%
    start datamodeler.exe
    Then double click on this file to start Data Modeler.
