Release Notes¶
GraphDB release notes provide information about the features and improvements in each release, as well as various bug fixes. GraphDB’s versioning scheme is based on semantic versioning. The full version is composed of three components:
major.minor.patch
e.g., 9.11.2 where the major version is 9, the minor version is 11 and the patch version is 2.
Note
Releases with the same major and minor versions do not contain any new features. Releases with different patch versions contain fixes for bugs discovered since the previous minor. New or significantly changed features are released with a higher major or minor version.
GraphDB 9 includes the following components with their version numbers:
RDF4J
GraphDB Connectors
GraphDB Workbench
Their versions use the same semantic versioning scheme as the whole product, and their values are provided only as a reference.

GraphDB 9.9 offers Graph Path Search through SPARQL, experimental support for FedX federation, SHACL performance improvements, and a number of fixes.
The SPARQL 1.1 property paths supported by GraphDB enable graph traversal, allowing you to discover relationships between resources through arbitrary length patterns. GraphDB 9.9 extends SPARQL with the Graph path search functionality that allows you to find complex relationships between resources, explore them, and use them as filters to identify graph patterns. It includes features for Shortest path and All paths search, which enable you to explore the connecting edges (RDF statements) between resources for the shortest property paths and subsequently for all connecting paths. Other supported features include finding the shortest distance between resources, discovering cyclic dependencies in a graph, as well as wildcard property search and more targeted graph pattern search. The graph path search extension is implemented using standard SPARQL 1.1 syntax, which allows for easy integration into queries without breaking existing SPARQL editors.
GraphDB 9.9 introduces experimental support for FedX Federation – the RDF4J framework’s federation engine, a data partitioning technology that provides transparent federation of multiple SPARQL endpoints under a single virtual endpoint. In the context of the growing need for scalability of RDF technology and sophisticated optimization techniques for querying linked data, it is a useful framework that allows efficient SPARQL query processing on heterogeneous, virtually integrated linked data sources. With it, explicitly addressing specific endpoints using SERVICE clauses is no longer necessary – instead, FedX offers novel join processing and grouping techniques to minimize the number of remote requests by automatically selecting the relevant sources, sending statement patterns to these sources for evaluation, and joining the individual results. FedX is still in active development and as such supports limited use-cases. Future versions will provide a more robust implementation.
GraphDB Helm charts are extended with backup and restore support, as well as support for major cloud platforms.
SHACL validation now works more reliably with bigger datasets.
GraphDB comes with the latest RDF4J 3.7.1, which includes many SHACL improvements and bug fixes.

GraphDB 9.8 offers text mining integration, synchronization to Kafka, Helm charts, and performance improvements.
The GraphDB text mining plugin allows you to consume the output of text mining APIs as SPARQL binding variables. The plugin comes with out-of-the-box support for popular text analytic services such as Ontotext’s Tag API, GATE Cloud, and spaCy server, as well as an expressive mapping language to register new services without coding. The extracted text annotations can be manipulated with SPARQL and either returned to the caller for further processing or stored directly into the repository where they will enrich the existing knowledge graph.
The Kafka connector provides a means to synchronize changes to the RDF model to any downstream system via the Apache Kafka framework. This enables easy processing of RDF updates in any external system and covers a variety of use cases where a reliable synchronization mechanism is needed.
GraphDB 9.8 comes with experimental Helm charts and instructions that can help you get started with GraphDB Enterprise Edition on Kubernetes. Each component is configured with sensible defaults and is very easy to customize it according to your needs. The Helm charts are open source and provided as a reference for setting up complex GraphDB deployments. They are under active development and more features will be added gradually and independently of GraphDB releases.
The new version of the GraphDB engine implements a major performance improvement in query evaluation due to optimized memory usage and algorithm optimizations. The LDBC SPB-256 benchmark showed around 50% increase in read performance, while the BSBM benchmark showed a 15% increase in read/explore operations.
GraphDB comes with the latest RDF4J 3.6.3, which includes many SHACL improvements and a SPARQL parser optimization.

Substantial performance and database throughput improvements - the engine implements a major improvement in the memory management and a 30% reduction in the generated Java objects. In combination with the optimized hashing algorithms and processing of DISTINCT/GROUP BY results, the database achieves up to 3 times better throughput in multi-client scenarios with such queries over large datasets like BSBM 1B. The overall performance improvement for all other operations is between 10-15% due to the lowered GC time.

Data virtualization of a relational database with the Ontop framework. All GraphDB editions now support a new repository type initialized with an R2RML or OBDA descriptor file to access a relational database like IBM DB2, MySQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL, Microsoft SQL Server, H2, and Denodo as a virtual read-only RDF graph. The new virtual repositories allow both the SPARQL access to RDBMS with highly dynamic or impractical to transform data source, and the batch transformation of relational models into RDF when requiring reasoning or advanced query features like property paths.
A new user interface simplifies the management of the SQL views mapped to SPARQL queries for JDBC access. The interface guides the user in validating the SPARQL queries’ syntax and their mapping to SQL types. It supports the automatic suggestion of the SQL value mapping after a scan as a bonus feature.
Improved security and single sign-on support including OpenID authentication and OAuth authorization.
Important bug fixes and improvements:
Performance optimization boosting the performance of short-lived requests
Upgraded Connectors to Lucene 8.6.3, Solr 8.6.3, Elasticsearch 7.9.2

Visual interface to generate structured to RDF data mappings in OntoRefine. The new interface enables the users to quickly map structured data to common RDF vocabularies and the ontologies stored in the current repository. The mapping interface also preserves the support of cleaning with GREL transformations, reconciling data against external services and exporting the transformation for automating the updates.
RDF mapping API. The new RDF Mapping API allows fast and easy automation of data to RDF transformations. It supports data providers like an OpenRefine project or posted CSV stream over which the user can apply mappings developed with the visual interface or SPARQL.
SQL access to GraphDB over JDBC driver. GraphDB features fully functional SQL-based access. Users can register SQL views over SPARQL queries and the new SQL query engine will optimize their execution by pushing some of the complexity down into the SPARQL query.
Usability improvements. Users can monitor and abort their own queries without the admin role; share saved visual graphs with other or anonymous access users; RDF parsers load the repository default prefixes;
Important fixes. SHACL validation is also functional in the cluster and includes multiple extensions introduced by RDF4J 3.3.0; Improved cluster scalability when consuming large results.

GraphDB 9.2 now supports statement level annotations with RDF-star/SPARQL-star (formerly RDF*/SPARQL*). They enable a more efficient representation of scores, weights, temporal restrictions, and provenance information. It also allows the implementation of all use cases native for the property graph model by fully supporting all its modeling primitives. GraphDB and the new RDF type reduce by over 40% the number of RDF statements, the loading time, and the required disk space to model complex graphs like Wikidata.
The semantic similarity indexes remain online during refresh. All clients will continue to hit the old similarity index version until the new one is fully functional and published.
The GraphDB Proof plugin can trace back the rules fired to derive a particular implicit statement.
Improved performance in the history log searches and diffs with the current state.
All third party open-source libraries are upgraded to the newer version to avoid publicly known vulnerabilities.
RDF4J is upgraded to 3.2.0-M1 version, which includes the embedded triple type and new RDF-star parsers and serializers.

GDB 9.1.0¶
Released: 19 January 2020
Component versions¶
RDF4J |
Connectors |
Workbench |
3.0.1 |
12.0.1 |
1.2.0 |
Important
GraphDB 9.2 now supports statement level annotations with RDF-star/SPARQL-star. They enable a more efficient representation of scores, weights, temporal restrictions, and provenance information. It also allows the implementation of all use cases native for the property graph model by fully supporting all its modeling primitives. GraphDB and the new RDF type reduce by over 40% the number of RDF statements, the loading time, and the required disk space to model complex graphs like Wikidata.
The semantic similarity indexes remain online during refresh. All clients will continue to hit the old similarity index version until the new one is fully functional and published.
The GraphDB Proof plugin can trace back the rules fired to derive a particular implicit statement.
Improved performance in the history log searches and diffs with the current state.
All third party open-source libraries are upgraded to the newer version to avoid publicly known vulnerabilities.
RDF4J is upgraded to 3.2.0-M1 version, which includes the embedded triple type and new RDF-star parsers and serializers.

The new release features a major redesign of the database Plugin API that simplifies the way to implement complex software logic next to the core database engine. Ontotext releases multiple plugins to the community as open source, demonstrating how to solve common tasks such as data virtualization (see MongoDB Plugin), a complex ranking of search results (see Autocomplete Plugin), new types of indexing (see GeoSPARQL plugin) and advanced graph analytics (see RDF Rank plugin).
GraphDB Workbench now becomes a separate open-source project enabling the fast development of knowledge graph prototypes starting from the default AngularJS administrative interface. Furthermore, the product includes an open source graphdb.js driver optimized for Node.js and other rapid development frameworks.
GraphDB 9.0 supports OpenJDK 11. The product continues to support OpenJDK 8 for its existing clients, as well as every new Oracle Java Long Term Support (LTS) version.
The product continues to support the RDF open-source community, and is now upgraded to RDF4J version 3.0.
