Eclipse Lyo
Eclipse Lyo promotes the use of Linked Data principles and the
OSLC
(Open Services for Lifecycle Collaboration) standard for publishing
lifecycle data, to enable the interoperability of heterogeneous products,
services, and other distributed network resources. The open OASIS OSLC
standard is based on a RESTful architecture and Linked Data principles, such
as those defined in the RDF family of specifications, and the
W3C Linked Data Platform.
Eclipse Lyo supports Java developers with the development of REST-based
servers and clients that need to share heterogeneous information as RDF
resources.
Lyo Features
OSLC4J SDK
Lyo’s central component is the OSLC4J SDK (Software Development Kit) that helps build REST-based servers and clients, compliant with the OSLC standard.
Lyo Designer
Lyo Designer is an Eclipse plugin that allows one to graphically model (1) the overall system architecture, (2) the information model of the RDF resources being shared, and (3) the individual services and operations of each Server in the system.
