Known issues

MeLOD environment integrates several information coming from different datasets. The development of such a kind of application is not problem free! The prototype we have developed is usable and can be experienced for testing purposes, but the creation of a real world application needs more requirements in terms of response time, results accuracy, implemented functionality. At present, we are experiencing the following issues we would like to fix in the next versions:

  • DBpedia is not stable, the web API is often under maintenance and the access to the data is often slow. To overcome this inconvenience we plan to install a local copy of the DBpedia using the dump file.
  • We are facing some problems in the use of the Europeana SPARQL endpoint. We are investigating the possibility of linking Europeana and DBpedia resources in order to exploit the DBpedia subject classification.
