Carmen Overview

Carmen is an application server driven by RDF, N3, OWL and SPARQL and based on Twisted.

Its goals are:

  • minimality
  • multiple RDF back-end compatibility
  • ease of configuration and extensibility via SPARQL and Semantic Web ontologies
2007-03-30 - Carmen 0.1.1 released

This is the first release of Carmen, it is very much a work in progress but it already has some basic web functionality mapped to RDF terms:

  • redirect
  • reverse proxy
  • static content
  • CGI
  • virtual hosts
  • cookie sessions
  • multiple authentication realms
  • simple RDF-driven website
  • simple visual website manager (CMS) powered by Tabulator

Carmen is supported by Dreamlab Technologies AG.
