Class FederatedSparqlQueryClient

A class for connecting to multiple remote SPARQL endpoints and federating queries over them with the results merged locally.

Namespace: VDS.RDF.Query

Assembly: dotNetRdf.dll

Syntax

public class FederatedSparqlQueryClient : ISparqlQueryClient, IConfigurationSerializable

Remarks

Queries are federated by executing multiple requests simultaneously and asynchronously against the endpoints in question with the data then merged locally. The merging process does not attempt to remove duplicate data it just naively merges the data.

AddEndpoint(SparqlQueryClient)

Add a remote endpoint using the specified client instance.

Declaration

public void AddEndpoint(SparqlQueryClient endpointClient)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
SparqlQueryClient	endpointClient	The client to use to connect to the remote endpoint.

Remarks
