EBUCorePlus is an ontology defined by EBU Members for media enterprises. It follows up on two long-standing EBU ontologies: EBUCore and CCDM (Class Conceptual Data Model). The two were merged and revised to develop EBUCorePlus, a new standard that can fully replace its predecessors. EBUCorePlus inherits both the long-lasting reliability of EBUCore and the end-to-end coverage of the media value chain of CCDM.
EBUCorePlus is specified using the ontology web language and therefore it is strictly semantic. Moreover, EBUCorePlus serves as a plug-and-play framework and it can be used out of the box, either in its entirety or as a subset of its elements. Nevertheless, EBUCorePlus may also be adapted and extended to enterprise-specific needs. Especially for system integration tasks and defining requirements.
EBUCorePlus comes with a Demonstrator Kit (CDK). It would come in handy, as transitioning to knowledge graphs requires extending development skills from entity-relationship models to ontologies, from tables to triples, and from SQL to SPARQL.
