I am learning on RDF and framework to implement them from RDF4J. While exploring I came across two APIs that seem to be very similar.

This is the one that RDF4J uses in its examples. These start with org.eclipse.rdf4j....

There is a very similar API here, which starts with org.openrdf....

What is the difference between these two?

Before becoming an eclipse project RDF4J was hosted at www.openrdf.org. Eclipse require all Java projects to use the org.eclipse package prefix and the packages were renamed.

    Might be good to mention that when hosted at openrdf.org, the project was called "OpenRDF Sesame". Eclipse RDF4J is basically the successor of that project. – Jeen Broekstra Nov 10 '17 at 04:26
