+ <p>SDB is a <em>deprecated</em> component of
<a href="http://jena.apache.org/">Jena</a> for RDF
storage and query specifically to support SPARQL.</p>
<p>The storage is provided by an SQL database and many databases are
supported, both Open Source and proprietary.</p>
<p>An SDB store can be accessed and managed with the provided command
line scripts and via the Jena API.</p>
+<h2 id="deprecation">Deprecation</h2>
+<p>As of June 2013 the Jena developers agreed to treat SDB as a deprecated component - see <a href="http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/jena-users/201306.mbox/%3c51B1A7FB.4070601@apache.org%3e">Future of SDB</a> thread on the mailing list.</p>
+<p>The developers intend to continue releasing SDB alongside other Jena components but it is not actively maintained since none of the developers are familiar with SDB or use it in their organizations.</p>
+<p>SDB may be revived as a fully supported component if members of the community come forward to maintain it. The Jena team strongly recommends the use of <a href="../tdb/">TDB</a> instead of SDB for all new development due to TDBs substantially better performance and scalability.</p>
