DBpedia Archive now part of Amazon Public Data Sets

All,

We now have the first of many data sets from the LOD community uploaded 
to the Amazon's public data set hosting facility.

Other data sets from the LOD cloud will follow.

Thus you can now do the following:

1. Download DBpedia data from Amazon's hosting facility at no cost to 
your own data center and then build your own personal or service 
specific edition of DBpedia
2. Download to an EC2 AMI and build yourself using Virtuoso or any other 
Quad / Triple Store
2. Use the DBpedia EC2 AMI which we provide (which will produce a 
rendition in 1.5 hrs)

I would especially like to thank our colleagues and new Linked Data 
supporters at both Amazon Web Services (Jeff & his wonderful team) and 
<http://Infochimps.org> (Joe Kelly and his colleagues) for their 
assistance re. getting this very taxing process in motion.

This is a major step forward for the Linked Data Web effort!

Please remember that: <http://esw.w3.org/topic/DataSetRDFDumps> remains 
the staging area for data sets. This is the focal point for our 
infochimps.org colleagues re. their assembly and deployment work en 
route to AWS hosting.
