Why isn’t semantic web more popular inside companies?

This expandable graph seems like the purest representation of all data in a company.

Instead we have several different databases each with their own schemas. All with entities related to one another, but without these relations defined anywhere, and impossible to query.

RDBMS are implementation details of this graph that involve a heap of manual work. Wouldn’t it be great if the rdbms was generated from this graph.

There are so many interconnections between the data involved in the design and implementation of a product and the product database itself.

Imagine hovering over a UI element and seeing who implemented it and when, what project it was part of, why the project was initiated, and what kpis and goals it contributes to.
