Over the last years, the Web of Data has grown significantly. Various interfaces such as LOD Stats, LOD Laudromat, SPARQL endpoints provide access to the hundered of thousands of RDF datasets, representing billions of facts. These datasets are available in different formats such as raw data dumps and HDT files or directly accessible via SPARQL endpoints. Querying such large amount of distributed data is particularly challenging and many of these datasets cannot be directly queried using the SPARQL query language. In order to tackle these problems, we present WimuQ, an integrated query engine to execute SPARQL queries and retrieve results from large amount of heterogeneous RDF data sources. Presently, WimuQ is able to execute both federated and non-federated SPARQL queries over a total of 668,166 datasets from LOD Stats and LOD Laudromat as well as 559 active SPARQL endpoints. These data sources represent a total of 221.7 billion triples from more than 5 terabytes of information from datasets retrieved using the service "Where is My URI" (WIMU). Our evaluation on state-of-the-art real-data benchmarks shows that WimuQ retrieves more complete results for the benchmark queries.
