Abstract

Claims (60)

1. A method comprising:

receiving data to cause presentation of a data project user interface, which includes a user input configured to generate a first data signal as an electronic request to include a dataset in a data arrangement constituting a data project;

detecting the first data signal responsive to activation of the user input;

analyzing data associated with the first data signal to determine the dataset is stored remotely;

identifying a remote link identifier associated with a remote data source at which the dataset is stored;

transforming the remote dataset identifier to form data representing a link identifier, the link identifier being associated at least a subset of the dataset including a graph data arrangement formatted as one or more triple-based data formatted datasets; and

presenting in the data project user interface the link identifier as associated with a local namespace associated with the data project.

2. The method of claim 1 wherein transforming the remote dataset identifier comprises:

transforming the remote dataset identifier to form data representing a transformed link identifier; and

presenting the link identifier as the transformed link identifier.

3. The method of claim 1 further comprising:

associating data representing the link identifier to the data arrangement constituting the data project.

4. The method of claim 3 wherein associating the link identifier to the data project comprises:

importing data from the dataset into the data project.

5. The method of claim 4 wherein importing the data into the data project comprises:

identifying each unit of data in a subset of the dataset;

forming links to each of the units of data; and

storing the links in an atomized dataset.

6. The method of claim 1 further comprising:

detecting activation of a second user input to form a query operation; and

receiving data representing a query command to identify the remote data source from which to extract data associated with the dataset.

7. The method of claim 6 further comprising:

executing the query command; and

performing an implicit federated query.

8. The method of claim 7 wherein performing the implicit federated query comprises:

applying a query operation via the transformed link identifier against the dataset and one or more other datasets.

9. The method of claim 6 further comprising:

identifying a command that identifies multiple tabular data arrangements in a query editor interface portion.

10. The method of claim 9 further comprising:

identifying the dataset including the multiple tabular data arrangements, wherein at least a portion of the dataset is associated with a spreadsheet data file.

11. The method of claim 8 further comprising:

detecting one or more explicit selections to extract a subset of data from the dataset.

12. The method of claim 6 further comprising:

applying the query operation via a path identifier against the remote dataset as an explicit federated query.

13. The method of claim 6 further comprising:

generating a service graph call to access the remote dataset.

14. The method of claim 1 further comprising:

performing an explicitly federated query.

15. An apparatus comprising:

a memory including executable instructions; and

a processor, responsive to executing the instructions, is configured to:

receive data to cause presentation of a data project user interface, which includes a user input configured to generate a data signal as an electronic request to include a dataset in a data arrangement constituting a data project;

detect the data signal responsive to activation of the user input;

analyze data associated with the first data signal to determine the dataset is stored remotely;

identify a remote link identifier associated with a remote data source at which the dataset is stored;

transform the remote dataset identifier to form data representing a link identifier, the link identifier being associated at least a subset of the dataset including a graph data arrangement formatted as one or more triple-based data formatted datasets; and

present in the data project user interface the link identifier as associated with a local namespace associated with the data project.

16. The apparatus of claim 15 wherein a subset of the instructions further causes the processor to:

transform the remote dataset identifier to form data representing a transformed link identifier; and

present the link identifier as the transformed link identifier.

17. The apparatus of claim 15 wherein a subset of the instructions further causes the processor to:

associate data representing the link identifier to the data arrangement constituting the data project.

18. The apparatus of claim 15 wherein a subset of the instructions further causes the processor to:

detect activation of second user input to form a query operation; and

receive data representing a query command to identify the remote data source from which to extract data associated with the dataset.

19. The apparatus of claim 18 wherein another subset of the instructions further causes the processor to:

execute the query command; and

perform an implicit federated query.

20. The apparatus of claim 18 wherein another subset of the instructions further causes the processor to:

identify a command that identifies multiple tabular data arrangements in a query editor interface portion.
