Dear all,

we are happy to announce the first public release of CumulusRDF, a Linked Data 
server that uses Apache Cassandra [1] as a cloud-based storage backend. 
CumulusRDF provides a simple HTTP interface [2] to manage RDF data stored in an 
Apache Cassandra cluster. 

Features
* By way of Apache Cassandra, CumulusRDF provides distributed, fault-tolerant 
and elastic RDF storage
* Supports Linked Data and triple pattern lookups
* Proxy mode: CumulusRDF can act as a proxy server [3] for other Linked Data 
applications, allowing to deploy any RDF dataset as Linked Data

This is a first beta release that is still somewhat rough around the edges, but 
the basic functionality works well. The HTTP interface is work-in-progress. 
Eventually, we plan to extend the storage model to support quads.

CumulusRDF is available from http://code.google.com/p/cumulusrdf/

See http://code.google.com/p/cumulusrdf/wiki/GettingStarted to get started 
using CumulusRDF.

There is also a paper [4] on CumulusRDF that I presented at the Scalable 
Semantic Knowledge Base Systems (SSWS) workshop at ISWC last week.

Cheers,
Andreas Harth and Günter Ladwig
