OBD:Web Services

From NCBO Wiki

OBD employs fully RESTful URLs as opposed to SOAP web services

The service layer is implemented using RESTlet.

The REST layer is self-describing. See:

Payload

OBD REST URLs can be constructed to return serializations in the following forms:

OBD XML

• OBD-XML RelaxNG Schema - also XSL Schema

OWL XML

Other OWL serializations are easily added if required. We use the OWLAPI for translation, so any serialization supported by that API (OWL-RDF-XML, Manchester Syntax etc) is possible
