We are pleased to announce the release of SHER, a highly scalable
ontology reasoning engine for OWL ontologies.

SHER is available for download at:

http://www.alphaworks.ibm.com/tech/sher

SHER is free for academic use, and the distribution includes the
source code.  SHER is built on Pellet, and scales to large instance
datasets stored in a relational database (upto 300 million RDF
assertions). SHER answers semantic queries issued in a SPARQL format,
and relies on DB2 (a free version of DB2 is available for download).
