Taxonomies compliment enterprise search systems to help people find information and expertise more easily, accelerate learning, locate and use information resources and create and share content.

A taxonomy organises knowledge and information. It defines a domain using a hierarchy, making it clear for a user what they know, what they don’t know and what they need to know. Whether researching a company, finding the right product or identifying who to talk with the taxonomy is a powerful tool by which people quickly find answers or stimulate problem solving.
