Free Webinar: 'Mind the Enterprise Search Gap', On 26 January 2011, with Smartlogic and NASA
Need to improve the findability and performance of your existing enterprise search or content management systems? Register now for our free webinar given by NASA and Smartlogic and find out how NASA have optimised enterprise search with semantics using Semaphore.
'Mind The Enterprise Search Gap: How NASA Is On The Road To Perfect Search.' Learn how NASA’s Chief Knowledge Officer is integrating semantics with the Johnson Space Center search engine by applying both taxonomy and ontology driven systems to improve findability and enhance end user experience to fully exploit 50 years of manned space flight information.
This free webinar provides invaluable information to executives and IT staff who are responsible for delivering enterprise search and content management / search systems to business users rapidly and cost effectively. Enterprise Search is now commonplace in many organisations. The three main choices for search are the Google Search Appliance, Microsoft Fast and Sharepoint, or Apache Lucene/ Solr.
While these are widely used, these Enterprise Search engines are not powerful enough to address the challenges of the enterprise because they do not know anything about the domain – how it breaks down into important entities and topics, the vocabulary, the people, and the resources related to these entities and topics. This is where semantics comes into play – to improve the performance of existing systems, whether it is SharePoint or an ECM system or Enterprise Search.
Smartlogic’s Semaphore is an Enterprise Semantic Platform that elevates an existing content management system or search engine to a 'find and discover' engine, by adding a semantic layer of functionality. This semantic functionality features powerful Semantic modeling capabilities for taxonomies and ontologies along with a rich set of APIs that make all its facilities open and available to other applications. Semaphore enhances content metadata by performing automated classification of information which leads to dramatically better search results, improved navigation and a contextual user experience.
In this free webinar, you’ll hear from Sarah Ann Berndt, Johnson Space Center Taxonomist and Toby Conrad, Senior Consultant at Smartlogic. Learn how you can:
- semantically enable your Enterprise Search and other ECM systems using navigational taxonomies, ontologies and automated classification
- dramatically improve your search results
- deliver compelling search applications that increase content reuse, support learning, and help users to complete tasks and solve the enterprise information overload and findability problem.
The free live webinar will be held on Wednesday, January 26, 2011 at the following times: 6:00AM PDT| 9:00 AM EDT| 2:00 PM GMT and 10:00AM PDT| 1:00PM EDT| 6:00PM GMT
