Follow on Google News | The Search For Meaning: Why Enterprise Information Management Needs Enterprise Semantics.Searching without context? Add intelligence to your enterprise information management strategy with semantics, say Semaphore software developers Smartlogic.
By: MOMENTUM WEB SOLUTIONS "In real life", he explains, "the meaning of a piece of information determines its usefulness, relevance and treatment. In a recent whitepaper Bentley argues that adding a 'semantic layer' to an enterprise information management infrastructure adds intelligence, enhancing its ability to manage, surface and control information by describing what the content is about, essentially by structuring data through the application of 'metadata'. He goes to describe the adoption of a 'platform' approach to enterprise semantics as one where existing information management investments can all benefit from the one semantic implementation, saying, "Embedded solutions that offer point solutions for a specific application but are inaccessible to others cause work to be repeated, opportunities missed and benefits diminished. Documented, published interfaces are key to easy integration, high performance and reliability is needed to support enterprise volumes and adherence to industry standards avoids vendor ‘lock-in’." Smartlogic is the developer of Semaphore, an enterprise semantic platform that augments traditional enterprise information management systems like search, content management systems and business workflow engines by adding advanced content classification, metadata and navigation capabilities to deliver a more complete enterprise information management experience. "Delivering semantics requires a blend of capabilities" "Ontology management is needed for model management and governance; text mining is useful for quick fire model building; rules-based classification is needed for transparent, understandable and accurate metadata tagging; a user experience engine ensures information is surfaced in context; an application framework embodying best practices means projects are off the ground in days; out of the box integrations with popular systems, such as SharePoint, takes the leg work out of systems integration."
