initially “Simple Protocol and RDF Query Language,” or nowadays more often referred to by the recursive acronym “SPARQL Protocol and RDF Query Language”; in its 1.1 version, SPARQL comprises not only a query language and a protocol but also a data manipulation language and other features
- SPARQL Protocol:
-
defines how to invoke SPARQL queries and updates via a SPARQL endpoint and how results should be returned via HTTP
- SPARQL Service:
-
Any implementation conforming to the SPARQL Protocol
- SPARQL Endpoint:
