Summary

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_lists_of_lists

Netbase is much more than a hyperfast triple store: It is a semantic inference system which has the wordnet ontology built-in. Semantic relations are the back-bone of netbase, so that you can quickly query with synonyms, transitive class hierarchies, part meronyms etc.

Instead of asking about the "names of the daughters of Barack Obama" you could just search for "Obamas kids".

Extremely fast data import is provided for all common graph/data formats including n3, rdf, owl, csv, mysql, sql and xml; The same formats are available for data access and data export together with the blueprints standard.

This database is already used by millions of users through the Genie/Voice Actions app.
