# Empire: RDF for JPA
Empire provides a standard [JPA](http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/J2EE/jpa/) style interface to
[RDF](http://www.w3.org/RDF/) databases using [SPARQL](http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf-sparql-query/).
Our immediate need for Empire was to be able to build RDF-backed web apps, including [Pelorus](http://clarkparsia.com/pelorus), while being
compatible with JPA/Hibernate-style interfaces to RDBMS.
The primary design goal of Empire is to implement as much of the JPA API as possible so that it can drop into existing
applications, providing a simple ORM layer for RDF.
## Resources
The docs directory contains some information on Empire including some usage examples and a short roadmap of what we
have planned for future versions.
