Error in Data Assets Ontology?

[Tim Smith]

Hi,

In the Product Sales Data example Data Assets graph, The NORTHWIND Physical Data Model instance has a violation with the realized as property shape.  The property shape indicates the object must be an instance of edg:DataContainer.  NORTHWIND-Production is an instance of edg:RelationalDatabase.  Relational Database does not inherit from Data Container thus the violation.  The same type of violation occurs in the other Data Asset examples that contain Physical Model instances.

edg:DataContainer is defined as:

"A 'Data container' is a collection of logical structures of data, or schema objects. In a relational database a container would contain tables. For example, for Oracle databases a data container is called a 'Schema'."

It's not clear to me how this should be resolved.

Thanks,

Tim

Hi Tim,

I have looked into the models and I think we can make relational and other databases subclasses of “DataContainer”.  This is what they would get with inheritance:

edg:DataContainer

rdfs:isDefinedBy <http://edg.topbraid.solutions/1.0/schema/datamodels> ;

rdfs:subClassOf edg:ComplianceAspect ;

rdfs:subClassOf edg:Traceable ;

sh:property edg:DataContainer-hostedOn ;

.

edg:DataContainer-hostedOn

a sh:PropertyShape ;

sh:path edg:hostedOn ;

rdfs:isDefinedBy <http://edg.topbraid.solutions/1.0/schema/datamodels> ;

sh:class edg:Server ;

sh:group edg:DataContextGroup ;

sh:maxCount 1 ;

sh:order "70"^^xsd:decimal ;

.

We will need to see how these properties from “DataContaoner” impact the DataBase Classes.

On an aside, there is a QA reporter for lineage map/reduce templates that also includes a diagram generator utility that uses the DAGRE JS libraries for auto-layout.  You run it as follows:

 

https://localhost:8083/tbl/swp?_viewClass=edg:AssetTypeReport&resource=edg:BusinessApplication&diagramType=A1

A small change can be made to not show traits (the aspect classes) - (as you mention in another post - will discuss that internally)
