%X The challenges of an application development are not only to launch the new products fastest, but need to be aware of making things more flexible and more manageable in the future. We should realize that anything can be changed rapidly. The architecture and design are mostly concerned. Therefore, incoming with semantic web technology, the recommended standards and tools always contend. For example: OWLAPI, Apache Jena, Sesame, etc. The problems of developer and software engineer are learning curve to use those tools with lacking of knowledge, experience, case studies and the lack of the ideas for mapping on their existing knowledge. In this paper, we design and demonstrate the facade layer on the top of Apache Jena and provide the typical structures that will be useful for the developers to reuse the facade interfaces and components in their own applications. Our experiments show that the facade layer is the obvious choice that can be used to reduce the complexity and the lines of code of the implementation.
