Resumen

This research aimed to analyze the implementation of the Semantic Web in digital organizations located in Villa El Salvador, considering organizational factors, implemented technologies, and information technology (IT) strategies associated with this process. A quantitative approach was adopted, using a non-experimental, cross-sectional, descriptive-correlational research design. Data were collected through the analysis of institutional websites and a structured questionnaire administered to IT managers from organizations in the technology, services, and e-commerce sectors. The results showed that the implementation of the Semantic Web was at an early stage, characterized by low levels of adoption and limited use of semantic technologies such as RDF, OWL, and SPARQL. Additionally, factors such as lack of time, budget constraints, and uncertainty regarding return on investment significantly influenced adoption levels. Conversely, organizations with IT strategies aligned with organizational objectives and an innovation-oriented approach exhibited higher levels of implementation. It was concluded that the effective adoption of the Semantic Web in digital organizations in Metropolitan Lima depends not only on technological availability but also on the strengthening of IT strategies and the mitigation of organizational and economic barriers.
