Linked Data

Linked Data is a series of techniques to allow data which is stored in a distributed fashion to be interconnected. It is describes a range of functions, including exposing, sharing, and connecting data. Linked Data is closely connected with the Semantic Web. In the context of DAM, Linked Data might be used to enable interoperability by allowing other systems to browse a collection of asset metadata records. The conventions for this might be based on an existing standard like Dublin Core or they may be an alternative protocol.
