About

OpenSearch is a specification that describes a website's search engine, enabling browsers, apps, and services to discover and integrate it.

It is implemented as a linked XML file and was originally developed by Amazon to make it easier for other applications to integrate their search services.

Resource Description Framework (RDF) is a W3C standard model for describing and exchanging graph-based data on the web.

It enables linking and integration of data across different vocabularies, represents information as subject-predicate-object triples forming directed graphs, and supports serialization formats such as RDF/XML for XML-based data exchange as well as Turtle and JSON-LD.
