An RDF query language is a computer language, specifically a query language for databases, able to retrieve and manipulate data stored in Resource Description Framework format.
SPARQL has emerged as the de facto RDF query language, and in 2008 became a W3C recommendation.[1][2]
Other notable RDF query languages include:
- DQL, XML-based, queries and results expressed in DAML+OIL
- XUL has a template element in which to declare rules for matching data in RDF. XUL uses RDF extensively for databinding.
- Adenine (programming language written in RDF).
