GSA Edition: Executive Summary

What does Semaphore add to the Google Search Appliance?

Google awarded Smartlogic “Most Innovative Product Integration 2007” for Semaphore – both companies having worked closely together to bring taxonomy, ontology and classification support to the Google Search Appliance (GSA).

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.
