Abstract

Data sourcing or integration is inevitable in current business scenario. Major issues of data sourcing from heterogeneous data sources are lack of semantic richness and deprived querying. To overcome these issues, an Ontology Based Data federation using Object Relational Database (OBDF-ORDB) architecture has been proposed and implemented. This OBDF-ORDB architecture consists of semantic layer and transformation & query layer. In semantic layer the ontology used to create local and global schema to enrich the semantics. In transformation & querying layer, Object Relational Database (ORDB) is used for storing the local ontology, global ontology to improve storage, maintenance and retrieval. The transformation rule engine proposed for the architecture converts and stores the local ontology and global ontology from flat OWL file to ORDB. The user queries are passed to ORDB for result extraction. To analyze the performance of the OBDF-ORDB architecture E-shopping application is selected. Experimental results shows that the proposed OBDF-ORDB architecture is relatively better than the traditional data access and ontology based data access in recall and response time. It is observed that the recall mechanism in OBDF-ORDB architecture has been improved by 25% compared to traditional data federation and response time is reduced by 15% compared to ontology based data federation.
