Kafka Topics

The following Kafka topics are reserved in Telicent CORE:

KNOWLEDGE

This is the topic that Smart-Cache GRAPH and Smart-Cache SEARCH read from. The purpose of the KNOWLEDGE topic is to log data that has been cleansed, linked and mapped to your ontology - i.e. high quality data suitable for linking in a knowledge graph.

See Creating Knowledge on how to generate and push data onto this topic via your data pipeline.

ONTOLOGY

This topic is read by Smart-Cache GRAPH. It is the log of all data events around the ontology - i.e. definitions of classes and properties as well as any SHACL constraints.

The ONTOLOGY topic may also contain graphical information to support the CORE apps - e.g. the default colors, icons, shapes to use for each class. These are referred to as ontology styles.

See Creating Ontology on how to generate and push data onto this topic via your data pipeline.
