High-Performance Data Access, Virtualization, Integration, and Management that works for You!
Creators of:
• Secure, high-performance, scalable, and multi-model #VirtuosoRDBMS
• Secure, high-performance #ODBC and #JDBC Data Access Drivers for various data sources
• OpenLink Structured Data Sniffer (#OSDS) Browser Extension
• #YouID Credentials Generator for Self-Sovereign Identity (#SSI)
🚀 Virtuoso Open Source 7.2.15 is out!
A high-performance, multi-model DBMS supporting SQL, SPARQL & GraphQL. Also a Web App Server (HTTP, WebDAV, OpenAPI) & MCP-accessible via ODBC, JDBC, pyODBC & DotNet.

Using the MCP services at: https://awsnews.remotemcp.directory
Operations where successfully bound to the services offered via the following Streamable HTTP endpoint:

Chat UI Options:

* https://inspect.mcp.garden/#chat (via https://linkeddata.uriburner.com/chat/mcp/messages)
One more thing, OPAL implements MCP as both a Client and Server, so it can bind to operations (tools) published by other MCP Servers that support SSE or Streamable HTTP.

4/ What next?
Take a look at OPAL by:
✅ Deploying it via cloud or on-premise
✅ Building AI-driven assistants for customer support, database queries & more
✅ Upskill your team —end-users, developers, product owners, marketers, & leadership in general
3/ Benefits?
It bridges the gap between AI, enterprise data, and real-world applications:
🔹 Developers: Build AI-powered tools with flexible data access
🔹 End Users: Query data using natural language prompts
🔹 Decision Makers: Gain fast, AI-driven insights for better choices
2/ It enables any MCP Client supporting SSE or Streamable HTTP to dynamically discover and invoke:
- SQL, SPARQL & GraphQL queries
- Metadata introspection
- AI Agent collaboration (#VirtuosoRDBMS Support Assistant, Data Twingler Assistant, etc.)
- Supported LLM listing & Use
Introducing the OpenLink AI Layer (OPAL) MCP Server
1/ This MCP Server is a game-changer for loosely coupling AI Agents & Data Spaces (databases, knowledge graphs, filesystems) coupling.
Boom!
In addition to our #MCP servers for #ODBC, #JDBC, #PyODBC, and #SQLAlchemy, we now have one for ADO.NET—bringing .NET runtime support into the mix.
At this point, we’ve covered all the major protocols needed to build data source–agnostic AI Agents via MCP.
Github Repo:
We've just published a community post showcasing the power of the OpenLink AI Layer (OPAL) in action. It includes Cello, an AI Agent prototype built using the EU's Virtuoso-based SPARQL endpoint.
This week’s edition of my @linkedin newsletter shines a light on the impact of the Model Context Protocol (MCP) across multiple computing eras—leading right up to today.
We’ve arrived at a moment where loose coupling principles are cool (and super useful) again.
Naturally, there are some live demo nuggets in the post to help bring it all to life:

The Model Context Protocol acts as a universal translator between LLMs and data sources, eliminating complex platform-specific requirements. Our new open source MCP server for ODBC (mcp-odbc-server) enables seamless integration of any ODBC-accessible data into RAG pipelines.

Here are a few examples.

2. https://linkeddata.uriburner.com/DAV/demos/vsps/test2.vsp -- Moderate Level Example using the Northwind DB
3. https://linkeddata.uriburner.com/DAV/demos/vsps/test3.vsp -- Advanced Record Navigation
In the age of AI, LLMs make this capability easier to use and tweak!
One of #VirtuosoRDBMS’s many superpowers is its ability to emit HTML directly from its DBMS core—unlike PHP, JSP, or ASP, where HTML generation happens separately. With native HTTP support, Virtuoso handles this seamlessly for powerful, data-driven web applications!
We are looking forward to working with
@openlink and eccenca GmbH on our new Eurostars Project “SPARQL-ML - Machine Learning for SPARQL Query Optimization”.🤝🥳
