+Apache Marmotta comes with the following components:
+
+* The Marmotta Platform, a JavaEE web application providing the Linked Data server.
+* [KiWi](http://marmotta.apache.org/kiwi), a Sesame-based triple store built on top of a relational database, including reasoning and versioning.
+* [LDPath](http://marmotta.apache.org/ldpath), a path language to navigate across Linked Data resources.
+* [LDClient](http://marmotta.apache.org/ldclient), a Linked Data client that allows retrieval of remote resources via different protocols by making use of pluggable adapters (data providers) that wrap other data sources (such as YouTube and Facebook).
+* [LDCache](http://marmotta.apache.org/ldcache), a cache system that automatically retrieves resources by internally using LDClient.
