As promised, the Open Anzo project has released version 2.5 of the Anzo enterprise RDF store. Version 2.5 is a stable release with a collection of bug fixes and new features since the fork from Boca. The release notes enumerate the additions, improvements, and changes, but here are some of the more significant ones:

• Add Oracle database support
• Add GROUP BY clause and COUNT(*) to Glitter SPARQL engine (more on this in a separate post, but along the lines of what exists in ARQ, Virtuoso, and RAP)
• Query performance improvements against both named graphs and metadata graphs
• Extensive Javadocs for all public classes, interfaces, methods, and member variables
