Links to Installing Virtuoso on Windows

In one of my earlier posts I wrote about installing Virtuoso triple store on Unix. In this post I thought I will put the links here for my future reference.

32-bit or 64-bit binary files are available here.

Installation steps are very well documented here. However do the Setup DSN only after creating a windows service for the default database.

Virtuoso is a fully functional database. It has in-built table called RDF_QUAD where it stores the triples.

If you have a scenario where in you want to convert the data that you have in your relational database into triples, you could use virtuoso to do it, however its not part of the open source release, but part of their commercial release.
