Release Notes¶

Improvements¶

• Deployment and Operations Improvements

To address the latest security vulnerabilities found in dependent libraries, the following library versions have been updated:

• Updated Spring Boot to 2.7.5
• Updated Spring Boot Starter Security to 2.7.5
• Updated Spring Security to 5.7.5
• Updated Jackson databind to 2.13.4.1
• Updated Apache Commons Text to 1.10.0

There is limited support for GraphDB 10.0.x and 10.1. The limitations include:

• GraphDB 10.x
  • Only single address needs to be provided for GraphDB cluster deployments. Specifying multiple addresses will use the ‘old’ GraphDB enterprise client that is not compatible with the cluster architecture of GraphDB 10.
  • The configuration sparql.endpoint.cluster.forceClusterClient should not be set to true.
• GraphDB 10.0.3
  • SHACL validations are not supported
  • The configuration sparql.endpoint.enableStatistics must be set to false as negatively affects some of the filtering optimizations
• GraphDB 10.1
  • SHACL validations are not supported

• Semantic Objects
  • Fixed the support for filters of multi-valued literal properties.
  • Improved the performance of the SPARQL value escape operation.
  • Added option to preload mutations during service startup. The new functionality is controlled by the configurations: graphql.preload.enabled and graphql.preload.location. Failures in the request will be ignored.
