We are happy to announce the release of Stardog 7.2.1. This release includes:

- Java 11 support: We now officially support Java 11 to run Stardog in addition to Java 8. If you have been using Java 8 there is no need to upgrade but if you are in an environment that only has Java 11 you should be able to use Stardog now.
- Improvements for large datasets: There are several different improvements for dealing with large datasets where resulting in better stability and performance. In our internal tests, we’re seeing a 14% performance improvement when loading 10 billion triples into Stardog.

There are a total of 40 tickets closed for this release that brings in other improvements and bug fixese. Please see the [release notes ([https://www.stardog.com/docs/release-notes/](https://www.stardog.com/docs/release-notes/)) for details.
