Linked Open Data

Linked Open Data connects openly available data using standardized web technologies and makes relationships across different data sources usable.

Connect open data across sources

Linked Open Data is an approach to publishing data openly, giving it unique identifiers, and connecting it through explicit relationships. Web technologies and standards make it possible to combine information from different sources and process it automatically. Linked Open Data therefore brings together open data, data integration, and web architecture. For related topics, see Data & AI and Web, REST and HTTP.

On this page, you will find articles, podcasts, and talks on Linked Open Data, open data, and connected information systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you have questions about Data & AI? Here you will find answers to questions we are frequently asked.

How does INNOQ support organizations in deploying artificial intelligence?

We work with you from strategic assessment to a production-ready system – from identifying the right use cases (for example in our AI Opportunity Mapping Workshop) through the architecture and development of AI systems to integration into your existing system landscape.

What are AI agents, and how can they automate business processes?

AI agents are systems that independently handle complex tasks, make decisions, and interact with your existing systems. They are particularly suited to processes that rule-based automation cannot handle – for example due to too many edge cases or media breaks. We support the integration of AI agents into your workflows, using open standards such as the Model Context Protocol (MCP).

Why do many AI projects not get beyond the proof-of-concept phase?

In practice, AI initiatives rarely fail because of the technology itself, but rather because of unresolved integration, security, or architecture questions. This is precisely where INNOQ comes in: we ensure your AI solution doesn’t remain in the lab but works reliably in production.

What is Data Mesh, and why is it the foundation for successful AI initiatives?

Data Mesh is an approach to decentralized data architectures with clear domain ownership. Instead of a central data platform that becomes a bottleneck, teams take ownership of their own data – through data products, data contracts, and self-service platforms. This creates the data quality and accessibility without which AI projects cannot scale.

Can we run AI models on our own infrastructure?

Yes. Not every organization is able or permitted to use external AI providers' models – whether for regulatory reasons, data privacy requirements, or strategic considerations. We advise on running open-source models on your own infrastructure or in a private cloud, and provide TCO analyses covering hardware and operating models.

How does INNOQ ensure we can continue independently after the project ends?

Our goal is enablement, not dependence. We rely on transparent, modular architectures rather than black box solutions – model-agnostic and free of vendor lock-in. We also train your teams through hands-on coaching programs such as the Agentic Engineering Accelerator.
