- <p class="note">
- It is tempting to think of <code>prov:DirectQueryService</code> as a particular kind of <code>prov:ServiceDescription</code>, but they are, in practice, distinct resources.
- <br/>
- <br/>
- This is seen when one considers that a <code>prov:ServiceDescription</code> may have multiple query mechanisms associated with it (e.g. a <code>prov:DirectQueryService</code> <em>and</em> an <code>sd:Service</code>). Also, they serve quite different purposes in the process of using provenance query services: look for <code>prov:ServiceDescription</code> to discover query services of any kind, then for associated <code>prov:DirectQueryService</code> or <code>sd:Service</code> resources to get details of specific mechanisms to use to access the service.
