8) Unexpected Added Value

9) Pattern Matching & Analytics

Linked-Data Are Multi-Layered

Unlike in a relational database Linked-Data are automatically multi-layered. This means that additional dimensions (like time) can be added across everything in one operation. Thus pattern matching and analytical functions can be easily and incrementally introduced at any given point in time.

10) Machine Learning
