Next Generation Unstructured Data Management Platform
Stratify, an emerging leader in unstructured data management
has released Stratify Discovery System v2.0, a software platform for unstructured information that enhances existing enterprise applications and allows the creation of new generations of decision-making and insight-producing applications.
The technology includes significant new features that focus on automatically building, refining and optimizing taxonomies, consistently classifying documents with the highest degree of accuracy, and seamlessly leveraging information contained in the taxonomy.
The technology features a unique component, according to the company, called the Stratify Taxonomy Manager, which provides an integrated, unified interface for 'Total Taxonomy Lifecycle Management'.
"Dialog depends on the parallel, multiple classifier architecture of the Stratify Discovery System for accurate, consistent real-time categorization of terabytes of unstructured information," said Rick King, CTO and executive vice president of Dialog, which is deploying the Discovery System to organize and provide access to data covering over 1,700 topics from a library of over 2500 media sources on its NewsEdge service.
"The automation tools that Stratify now provides to refine and optimize taxonomies are critical to increasing our efficiency. We also are taking advantage of the new collaborative workflow provided by the Taxonomy Manager interface to enable multiple editors in various locations to work in parallel on different aspects of the taxonomy without impacting our production environment."
Build Taxonomies Automatically.
The Stratify Discovery System automates the process of organizing unstructured information by using the structure implicit in documents to construct an easy-to-navigate taxonomy customized for a business. For companies that use custom, industry standard or third party taxonomies, or organize their information using a file server or webserver, the system can directly import that existing work and automatically extend it. To reflect rapidly changing business conditions, the Stratify Discovery System introduces unique capabilities to automatically refine and optimize taxonomies and classification models, so users can continuously leverage their business-critical information as efficiently as possible.
Multiple classification
Stratify technology uses multiple classification technologies that operate in parallel to classify documents more accurately than systems that depend on a single classification technology. Stratify's patent-pending technology compares and combines the results from each classifier to produce the best possible classifications: a new Boolean classifier, in addition to Stratify's statistical, keyword, and source classifiers, is built on the Discovery System's extensible architecture and enables companies to leverage pre-existing Boolean rules or create new rules. The real-time classification capabilities of the Stratify Discovery Server can enhance publishing workflow by providing accurate document classifications, or help discover related critical information in new business intelligence applications.
Total Taxonomy Lifecycle Management
The Taxonomy Manager provides a single interface that unifies all taxonomy and classification management tasks.
Simplifying the workflow across the taxonomy lifecycle, it enables users throughout an enterprise to easily collaborate
on all taxonomy lifecycle tasks, including the ability to (1) Create Taxonomies (2) Define Classification Models (3) Test & Assess Classification
Models (4) Refine and Optimize
Taxonomies and Classification Models and (5) Publish Taxonomies and Classify Documents.
The system allows users to lock individual topics, subtrees and taxonomy versions within the Taxonomy Manager interface to protect their work in progress.
