rdflib is a python library implementing a database with various triples back-end, parser, data serializers, SPARQL is a Python interface to extract/insert triples. We integrated it in Django reusing the database connection and exposing an ORM interface, along with full-text search on literals. This presentation shows a django-rdflib case study with a PostgreSQL backend in Brain Architecture Management System (http://brancusi1.usc.edu) - a neuroscientific project for the University of Southern California. Benefits of the flexible RDF structure will be shown, allowing researchers to insert free format data, making data public with a customizable serialization and use the powerful full-text search integrated in PostgreSQL.
