What is SDB's full name in Jena

I know Jena SDB has been end of life since Dec 2020. Nevertheless, I wonder what SDB stands for. Is is Statement Data Base or Semantic Data Base? Even referring to Jena's homepage, there was no answer to that.

Solution

  • It doesn't stand for anything. It is "SDB".

    The previous system was "RDB".
    The successor is "TDB".

    Vaguely and not formally:
    RDF DataBase
    SPARQL DataBase
    Tuple DataBase
