You can use a sesame2 remote connection to a sesame2 server (see related section of the sesame2 manual for how to setup a server). Remember to enable RDFS Reasoning and a Hierarchical Reasoner if you want to exploit the reasoning capabilities of VB (though this will affect performances).

Also, we recommend use of other triple stores if you have the necessity to manage large quantities of data and/or if you want to exploit OWL reasoning capabilities. Currently in fact, VB is best adopted with a triple store supporting at least hierarchical inferencing and RDFS/OWL reasoning, however, Sesame has usually poor performances on even average size repositories when its reasoning sails are being activated.

For using the remote connection, just follow these instructions:

  • create an empty repository on your sesame server, and remember the Repository ID you chose
  • Now, on VocBench, create a new project, then...
  • Select the remote access option
  • VB will prompt to input the following parameters:
    • repositoryId
      • ID of the sesame2 repository to be accessed 
      • This should match the ID value used in repository (Repository ID value while creating new repository in OWLIM)
    • serverURL
    • Username
      • Identifier for the user connecting to the rdf repository
      • If not applicable, add “test” as this is mandatory field
    • Password
      • Password for the user connecting to the rdf repository
      • If not applicable, add “test” as this is mandatory field
    • Click on the [?] icon to view each field information.
    • It is assumed that the Data Server is already running and the specified repository has been created.
    • Click [Add] button to create the project.
    • The newly created project will be added to the list.
