The real danger of AI is not the singularity but the stories AI can cause us to believe and the emotions these stories can inspire in us. As always, a thought provoking talk by Yuval Noah Harari. youtu.be/LWiM-LuRe6w

We encourage you to migrate to OLS4 soonest since OLS3 will be switched off on 30 Oct 2023. On 30 Oct 2023 all OLS3 (ebi.ac.uk/ols) URLs will be redirected to OLS4 (ebi.ac.uk/ols4). Please log any OL4 issues at github.com/EBISPOT/ols4/i….

OLS4 is down currently. We are working to resolve this ASAP. We will let you know once it is up and running again.

henrietteharmse.com/2023/07/24/uml… I eventually got around to create a UML class diagram to OWL converter. The very first version of it is available at github.com/henrietteharms…. I hope to add an example based on DCAT version 2 and support for enumerations shortly.

A brief reminder to please switch over to OLS4 (ebi.ac.uk/ols4) ASAP as we will switch off OLS3 on 30 October 2023. On 30 Oct 2023 all OLS3 (/ols/) URLs will be redirected to OLS4 (/ols4/). Please log issues at github.com/EBISPOT/ols4/i….

In the last while we have experienced 3 main issues with OLS4. 1. We had failures of the data release pipeline. 2. We had infrastructure resource issues resulting in OLS4 going down. We have good reason to believe we have resolved 1 & 2, however we will continue monitoring.

3. A number of high/medium priority bugs were logged. Changes for addressing 3 will go into our test environment for proper testing shortly.

We are aware of an issue currently where the Solr pod on K8s is restarting arbitrarily resulting in OLS being unresponsive for about 20 minutes until Solr starts up again. We are working actively on resolving it ASAP. We appreciate your understanding and patience in this regard.

The outages OLS4 experienced are related to K8s resource limits. OLS4 itself is highly stable. We have addressed most of the resource issues, but will continue to monitor. For full details subscribe to our email list: listserver.ebi.ac.uk/mailman/listin….

Join us at the FAIR-IMPACT governance workshop where Zoe May Pendlington and I will present on ontology governance at EMBL-EBI along with many other great presenters. Hope to see you there! fair-impact.eu/events/fair-im…. #ontologies #governance #semanticweb

We are moving the OLS3 to OLS4 switch over to 13 Nov to allow us time to resolve the OLS4 backend outages. You can read more about it at github.com/EBISPOT/ols4/i….

We are happy to report that the OLS4 critical issue (github.com/EBISPOT/ols4/i…) has been resolved! OLS3 will be switched off on 13 Nov. Please test your application against OLS4 ASAP so that we can deal with any issues ASAP.

We have now completed the change to route OLS3 (/ols/) requests to OLS4 (/ols4/). Thus, all OLS requests should now go to OLS4. If you do encounter any issues, please open a ticket at github.com/EBISPOT/ols4/i… and we will attend to it ASAP.
