Hi, OpenLink Software is pleased to announce the official release of Virtuoso, Version 7.2.0. The new release includes: * Loosely-coupled SSL/TLS SSL/TLS version and associated cipher selection is now configurable. Net effect, you can now explicitly disable the use of specific SSL/TLS versions (e.g., SSL/TLS 3.0, which is susceptible to the POODLE exploit). * Improved LDP Support Linked Data Platform protocol support has been enhanced, as an extension to existing WebDAV protocol support. Specific WebDAV folders can now be designated as LDP Containers, and once this designation has been made, LDP-aware user agents will be able to deductively interact with WebDAV Folders and the documents they contain, using entity relations embedded in both header and body of HTTP responses. * WebDAV access to 3rd Party Storage Services 3rd Party Storage Services (e.g., Dropbox, Amazon S3, Microsoft OneDrive, Google Drive, Box, Rackspace, etc.) are mountable and un-mountable using an asynchronous operation (in prior releases, this was a synchronous operation). Once mounted, these 3rd party folders function like any other WebDAV resource. This kind of WebDAV collection (a "Dynamic Extension Resource Type" or "DET" for short) can also be designated as an LDP Container, making Virtuoso WebDAV a powerful LDP proxy mechanism for storage services that do not currently support LDP. * File System Hosted Virtual Tables Enables Virtuoso instances to attach to CSV documents hosted by the File System. Once attached, VIEWs of these documents can be represented as SQL Relational Tables (by default) and/or RDF Property/Predicate graphs (via RDF Views functionality). * Loosely-Coupled Sponger Middleware Services Built-in RDF document transformation middleware is now loosely- coupled to its host Virtuoso database server instance. As a result, you can now use the POST method to request asynchronous data transformation services from a Sponger instance, with the transformed data returned as part of an HTTP response payload. * Built-in Nanotation Processor Enables automatic transformation of TURTLE statements embedded in Email Messages, Online Discussion Posts, Tweets, Social Media Posts (Facebook, LinkedIn, Google+), HTML Body, and Plain Text documents into RDF-based Linked Open Data, which is then stored in the host Virtuoso instance. You now have the freedom, power, and flexibility to create data wherever and whenever -- as long as the target destination in a content input control that supports plain/text. * SPARQL-FED Remote Service Evaluation Adds SPARQL endpoint deduction capability to SPARQL-FED. Usage requires granting a new SPARQL_LOAD_SERVICE_DATA role to SPARQL user account. Once granted, Virtuoso makes a best-attempt to determine the capabilities of a SPARQL endpoint by looking up its SPARQL Service Description Document, if available, and/or executing a series of SPARQL test queries (e.g., testing whether SPARQL Query results are returned in all formats outlined by the W3C SPARQL spec).
