[Versión en español|Comparativa esDBpedia versión 2016]

On June 18th 2018 we updated the data available in the SPARQL endpoint.

The following SPARQL query retrieves the number of instances for each class in the DBpedia ontology.  

%%prettify 
{{{
SELECT ?class (COUNT(?s) AS ?count) WHERE {
 ?s a ?class .
 filter (strstarts(str(?s), "http://es.dbpedia.org/resource")) .
 filter (strstarts(str(?class), "http://dbpedia.org/ontology"))
} GROUP BY ?class ORDER BY DESC(?count)
}}}
/%


The following figure shows the increase on the number of instances from the previous version (DBpedia 2014) to the new one (DBpedia 10-2016) for the most populated classes. \\
Por instance, for class 'Agent' we have moved from 276,260 instancias to 363,866.

If we compare with the [previous data update | Comparativa esDBpedia versión 2014], in which we went from version 3.9 to the 2014 version, we must notice the following:
* In the 2014 update, information from both es.dbpedia.org and dbpedia.org was included in the SPARQL endpoint. Therefore,  the number of resources of a given data type was somewhat higher than twice the number in 2013 (DBpedia 3.9).
* To avoid this duplicity, we have included in the SPARQL query the filtering of the variable ?s, counting only those that begin with es.dbpedia.org
* Do not try to execute this query in the SPARQL endpoint. It will result in a timeout because it is very heavy. We have been able to execute it because we can make queries in an environment without timeout restrictions.
* We have also updated the version of the triple store (Virtuoso), from version 6 to version 7. This has caused some problems because the namespaces known by Virtuoso have changed. For example, the namespace dbpedia-owl was previously known by Virtuoso, but now it is not included and must be specified in the queries by setting PREFIX dbpedia-owl: <http://dbpedia.org/ontology/>
