The basic paradigm behind [[Graph Database]]s. For storing statements that describe the relationship between things, like: `Sarah knows Jon` Or object property associations, if the predicate is related to the subject exhibiting some trait: `Jon likes cars` These types of statements, numbering in the billions and trillions, are what powers the [[Wikidata]] and other large [[graph]] datasets. These are stored in [[Turtle]] or a graph-variant of [[XML]] or [[JSON-LD]]. I also have briefly toyed around with a simple [[Hierarchy|hierarcical]] representation of these, where it makes sense it could be useful: ```plaintext - Sarah - knows - John - James - has occupation - engineer - mother of - Juliet ``` **** # More ## Source ## Related
