Real-time reasoning for the IKEA Knowledge Graph
Cross-product relationships (add-on recommendations, compatibility, substitutions) were being curated manually, article by article. The process did not scale to the catalog, and the domain experts closest to the data had no way to express relationships as rules.
Built a reasoning application on RDFox Datalog and Metaphactory that lets home-furnishing knowledge engineers author cross-product relationships as declarative rules. Each rule generates thousands of pairings automatically. Rearchitected the Databricks pipeline so the domain team contributes directly to the KG, with validation errors surfaced back to the authors. Delivered the ontology, mappings, and the Azure platform underneath.
Manual article-by-article curation replaced with rule-based authoring controlled by the people who own the domain. Thousands of product pairings produced per rule, driving measurable lift in online conversion.
