Through Open-source software, Java (programming language) and Relational database
Jena is similar to RDF4J (formerly OpenRDF Sesame); though, unlike RDF4J, Jena provides support for OWL (Web Ontology Language). The framework has various internal reasoners and the Pellet reasoner (an open source Java OWL-DL reasoner) can be set up to work in Jena.
Jena supports serialisation of RDF graphs to:
- a relational database
- RDF/XML
- Turtle
- TriG
- Notation 3
- JSON-LD
