Linked Data Management presents techniques for querying and managing Linked Data that is available on today’s web. Despite the publication of many papers since Tim Berners-Lee developed the Linked Data principles in 2006, the field lacks a comprehensive, unified overview of the state of the art. Suitable for both researchers and practitioners, this book provides a thorough, consolidated account of the new data publishing and data integration paradigm. While the book covers query processing extensively, the Linked Data abstraction furnishes more than a mechanism for collecting, integrating, and querying data from the open web—the Linked Data technology stack also allows for controlled, sophisticated applications deployed in an enterprise environment.

• Provides a comprehensive treatment on how to manage the vast amount of Linked Data attainable through the web • Covers relevant Semantic Web standards, such as RDF, SPARQL, and the Linked Data Platform • Describes numerous applications of centralized, parallel, and distributed query processing in databases, data streams, and the cloud • Explains how to derive additional knowledge from given data

• Discusses the use of the malicious user story in application and security design, specifically in the context of service oriented applications

• Illustrates the opportunities and challenges involved in using Linked Data for the integration applications
