- SPLENDID: SPARQL Endpoint Federation Exploiting VOID Descriptions + (SPLENDID allows for transparent query fede … SPLENDID allows for transparent query federation over distributed SPARQL endpoints. In order to achieve a good query execution performance, data source selection and query optimization is based on basic statistical information which is obtained from VOID descriptions. The utilization of open semantic web standards, like VOID and SPARQL endpoints, allows for flexible integration of various distributed and linked RDF data sources. We have described in detail the implementation of the data source selection and the join order optimization. The evaluation shows that our approach can achieve good query performance and is competitive compared to other state-of-the-art federation implementations. In our analysis of the source selection we came to the conclusion that at least predicate and type statistics should be included in VOID description for RDF datasets. The use of 3rd party sameAs links, however, can significantly increase the number of requests and thus, hamper the efficiency of query execution plans. The comparison of the two employed physical join implementations has shown that the network overhead plays an important role. Both hash join and bind join can significantly reduce the query processing time for certain types of queries. With SPLENDID we also like to advocate the adoption of VOID statistics for Linked Data. As next steps, we plan to investigate whether VOID descriptions can easily be extended with more detailed statistics in order to allow for more accurate cardinality estimates and, thus, better query execution plans. On the other hand, the actual query execution has not yet been optimized in SPLENDID. Therefore, we plan to integrate optimization techniques as used in FedX. Moreover, the adoption of the SPARQL 1.1 federation extension will also allow for more efficient query execution.allow for more efficient query execution.)
