Linked Data allows for large-scale integration of data on the web by representing entities with URIs and linking them with typed relationships. Major companies like Google and Facebook are using Linked Data to power knowledge graphs and the Open Graph protocol. Several scientific organizations are also publishing their data as Linked Data, including Nature, Europeana, and WorldCat. Linked Data technologies like RDF, HTTP, and URIs enable representing and connecting information for both humans and machines on the web.
