# Migrating an existing graph from an RDF triple store to Amazon Neptune
<a name="migrating-from-rdf"></a>

If you have graph data in an RDF/SPARQL to migrate to Amazon Neptune, you would take the following steps:

1. Export the data from your RDF triple store.

1. Convert the exported data to a [format that the Neptune bulk loader can import](bulk-load-tutorial-format-rdf.md).

1. Store the data to be imported in Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3).

1. Using [Neptune Bulk Loader](bulk-load.md), import the data from Amazon S3 into a Neptune DB cluster that you have prepared.

1. Modify your existing application to connect to Neptune's SPARQL endpoint.

If you want to try out migrating property-graph CSV data into RDF, you can use the [Amazon Neptune CSV to RDF converter](https://github.com/aws/amazon-neptune-csv-to-rdf-converter).
