title: 'virtuoso: Interface to ''Virtuoso'' using ''ODBC'''
version: 0.1.8
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.virtuoso
abstract: Provides users with a simple and convenient mechanism to manage and query
  a 'Virtuoso' database using the 'DBI' (Data-Base Interface) compatible 'ODBC' (Open
  Database Connectivity) interface. 'Virtuoso' is a high-performance "universal server,"
  which can act as both a relational database, supporting standard Structured Query
  Language ('SQL') queries, while also supporting data following the Resource Description
  Framework ('RDF') model for Linked Data. 'RDF' data can be queried using 'SPARQL'
  ('SPARQL' Protocol and 'RDF' Query Language) queries, a graph-based query that supports
  semantic reasoning. This allows users to leverage the performance of local or remote
  'Virtuoso' servers using popular 'R' packages such as 'DBI' and 'dplyr', while also
  providing a high-performance solution for working with large 'RDF' 'triplestores'
  from 'R.' The package also provides helper routines to install, launch, and manage
  a 'Virtuoso' server locally on 'Mac', 'Windows' and 'Linux' platforms using the
  standard interactive installers from the 'R' command-line. By automatically handling
  these setup steps, the package can make using 'Virtuoso' considerably faster and
  easier for a most users to deploy in a local environment. Managing the bulk import
  of triples from common serializations with a single intuitive command is another
  key feature of this package. Bulk import performance can be tens to hundreds of
  times faster than the comparable imports using existing 'R' tools, including 'rdflib'
  and 'redland' packages.
