JSON [RFC4627] is a lightweight, language-independent data-interchange format. It is easy to parse and easy to generate. However, it is difficult to integrate JSON from different sources as the data has just local meaning. Furthermore, JSON has no built-in support for hyperlinks - a fundamental building block on the Web.

Let's look at an example that we will be using for the rest of this section: Example 1: Sample JSON document It's obvious to humans that the data is about a person whose name is "Manu Sporny" and that the homepage property contains the URL of that person's homepage.
