Ontology Overview

An Ontology is a model that defines semantic relationships between data. In D.Hub, ontologies allow you to connect distributed datasets and build knowledge graphs from a business perspective.

Ontology List

1. Entity

An entity is an abstraction of a real-world object (e.g., Customer, Product, Order).

  • Each entity can be mapped to a specific dataset.
  • Entities have properties that correspond to columns in the dataset.

2. Relationship

A relationship defines associations between entities (e.g., a customer orders a product).

  • Relationships have a direction and a type.
  • They are stored in a graph database, enabling complex connectivity analysis.

Feature Menu

The Ontology menu is divided into two main features.

Builder

A tool for designing ontology models.

  • Visually create and edit entities and relationships.
  • Define and manage data schemas.

Graph Explorer

A tool for visually exploring actual data loaded into the defined model.

  • Execute Cypher queries to analyze data relationships.
  • Click on nodes and edges to view detailed information.
