• Linked Data is about publishing and consuming data using international data standards

• Based on 20 year old idea

• A system of linked information systems

Wolters Kluwer has a track record in RDF

• “Standardizing content formats used by publishing units could unleash tremendous benefits.”

• In 2010, there was a diverse landscape that “obstructs the reuse of content across vertical markets and presents a challenge to streamlining content supply chain technology stack used by business units.”

Wolters Kluwer

• Short-term goal: "bridge between these data islands"

• Long-term goal: "standardize content supply chains, enabling significant product innovation and massive cost savings"

Wolters Kluwer

• As of 2010, the project was still in progress.

• A number of applications exist ‒ currently the approach is being used to govern the conversion and delivery of European legal content to a delivery platform designed for entirely different US content.

WE’VE SEEN THIS BEFORE

Sharing Worldwide

Business in future shock• Business needs changing at a

faster pace• M&As• New and changing government

regulations• Changing global economy

• Information more central to operation of any business

• More data being published than ever and more on the Web ...

"If information systems are to keep up with business,we need to change more than technology -

we need to change how people deal with technology."-- Jeff Pollock

THEMES

• Myth: One authoritative, centralized system for data is necessary to ensure quality and

proper usage.

• Reality: In many cases there is no “one right way” to curate and view the data. What is right for one department can limit or block another.

THEMES

• Myth: If we centralize control, no one will be able to use the data in the wrong way.

• Reality: If you limit users, they will find a way to take the data elsewhere --> decentralization

THEMES

• Myth: We can have one group who will provide reporting to meet everyone’s data analysis needs.

• Reality: One group cannot keep up with all the changing ways in which people need to use data

and it is very expensive.

MANY KINDS OF REVOLUTIONS HAPPENING TODAY ...

LINKED DATA IS THE INFORMATION

SHARING REVOLUTION

GovernmentsGoals: Governmental transparency and/or improved

internal efficiencies (data warehouses)

Hardware/Software Vendors

Goal: Improve interoperability between products and product lines

Manufacturing & RetailGoal: Improve click-throughs on search results

PublishersGoals: Improve internal manuscript pipelines, expose

additional ways of finding and using content

New Media

WHY HAS THERE BEEN GROWTH?

International data exchange standards are the reason that

The Web has become the most extensible, robust information network ever created

A data sharing revolution is even possible

We can share open documents and open data

Consider the alternative ... Closed, proprietary, silos.

“Cooperation without coordination”

- David Wood

OPEN GOVERNMENT DATA3 BRIEF YEARS ...

Starting in 2008, a few heads of state directed open government data to be published on the Web

In September 2011, Presidents Obama (USA) and Rousseff (Brazil) endorsed the Open Government Partnership

7 other nations launched their government’s National Plans during the meeting of the UN General Assembly

TODAY ...

295 datasets meeting LOD Cloud criteria, 31 billion RDF statements interlinked by more than 500 million links ...

and we’re just really getting started!

Improved developer tools for data modeling, linking data sets and visualization
