The Repository API: the main API for handling Sesame repositories.
The class {@link org.openrdf.repository.Repository} is the main interface for
Sesame repositories. It provides all sorts of operations for manipulating RDF
in various ways, through a {@link org.openrdf.repository.RepositoryConnection}.
An important notion in a Sesame repository is that of context.
Within one repository, subsets of statements can be identified by their context.
RDF Storage And Inference Layer (RDF Sail): a set of interfaces defining an API
for RDF repositories. The main interface is Sail, which defines methods
for initialization, querying and starting transactions. Queries are expressed in
the Sail query model, which can be found in sub-package
org.openrdf.sesame.sail.query.
An implementation of the RDF SAIL API that uses main memory for storage.
This implementation uses a graph as data structure, and is aimed to have
the best possible performance, possibly at the cost of memory usage.
