[edit] Reindexing Stores
Store owners can now submit a scheduled job which will reindex a store's existing metadata. The reindexing process will use the store's current Field Predicate Map. A store can be used as normal while a reindex is being performed although changes to the RDF made during this period are not guaranteed to be indexed. The reindex process is designed to be robust and any failures will not affect the status of the target store. There is a very short period of unavailability for the store as the new indexes are swapped over to the new ones. In normal operation this period should be less than a second.
