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.
