TEMIS unveils Luxid® for Microsoft SharePoint 2013

Luxid_for_SharePoint_2013The integration of Luxid® with SharePoint 2013 automates the enrichment of columns with domain-specific metadata

Paris, France – May 21st, 2013 – TEMIS, the leading provider of Semantic Content Enrichment solutions for the Enterprise, today announced that its Luxid® for SharePoint 2013 integration will become commercially available as of today. Luxid® for SharePoint 2013 is an integration of TEMIS’ flagship Luxid® Content Enrichment Platform into SharePoint 2013.

Based on patented and award-winning technology, Luxid® Content Enrichment Platform is a powerful and scalable content enrichment solution that natively supports 20 languages and exploits specialized engines called Skill Cartridges® to automatically extract relevant topics, entities, facts, sentiments, or categories from documents and generate rich metadata. This semantic metadata, stored in SharePoint 2013 columns, is then freely available for use by any application, opening new perspectives for content management, archival, business process automation, analytics and search. Luxid® includes a library of off-the shelf Skill Cartridges® that address areas of recurring interest, as well as a suite of productivity tools that help customize them and create new ones that are relevant to customer business areas.

“This second-generation integration will help enable our customers to deploy semantic enrichment industrially on their SharePoint 2013 farms”, said Michaël Domanski, Alliances and Channel Manager, TEMIS. “The domain-specific metadata produced by Luxid® is now available for search services, for the Term Store as well as the entire application layer.”

Luxid® for SharePoint 2013 is a second-generation integration that builds on the same foundations as the TEMIS’ Luxid® for SharePoint 2010 integration, with significant extensions in key functional areas based on customer feedback:

  • Seamless integration with SharePoint 2013
    Luxid® for SharePoint 2013 is a server application that is seamlessly accessed through Web Services, reads documents, extracts relevant metadata based on their Content Type and feeds it into the corresponding SharePoint 2013 columns. This alleviates end-user manual contribution efforts and enhances the quantity and quality of metadata. Depending on governance policies, metadata may remain accessible for end user modification thanks to habitual SharePoint 2013 views.
  • Industrial configuration and deployment
    Thanks to a rich set of configuration interfaces, all relevant Luxid® content enrichment service parameters – such as Content Type definitions, corresponding Managed Metadata and Managed Properties – can be configured through Luxid® for SharePoint 2013 menus, streamlining to a matter of minutes the mechanics of deployment to an entire SharePoint 2013 farm. Luxid® for SharePoint 2013 also preserves the history of manual metadata modifications for audit purposes.
  • Advanced Term Store integration
    Luxid® for SharePoint 2013 enables full, two-way integration with the SharePoint Term Store. When implemented in the context of a closed Term Set, Luxid® applies the Term Set to content, enabling precise institutional governance over – managed – metadata through an Enterprise taxonomy. In the case of open Term Sets, Luxid® identifies concepts beyond a pre-ordained list, as they appear in the content, a process that supports the enrichment or feeding of an enterprise taxonomy based on actual enterprise content.
  • Native application integration
    Stored in SharePoint columns, the metadata produced by Luxid® for SharePoint 2013 becomes natively accessible to any application – in particular for content management, business process automation, information access or analytical tasks. As an example, exploiting Managed Properties or Managed Metadata, any SharePoint 2013 search service may seamlessly index this metadata and present rich faceted navigation interfaces structured according to end-users’ enterprise taxonomy. Other features that can be built include contextual navigation, content recommendation engines and analytical widgets.

Availability
Luxid® for SharePoint 2013 will be made available through TEMIS directly and its network of partners and system integrators as of today.

TEMIS completes successful wide scale semantic content enrichment test in Windows Azure

Luxid® now available for cloud-based content enrichment applications in Windows Azure

Windows Azure

Paris, France – March 26th, 2013 – TEMIS, the leading provider of semantic content enrichment for the enterprise announced today it has completed a conclusive series of tests of its flagship Luxid® Content Enrichment Platform on Microsoft Corp.’s Windows Azure, opening the door to customer application deployments on Microsoft’s cloud infrastructure.

A Microsoft Gold Partner, TEMIS is the provider of the flagship Luxid® Content Enrichment Platform, which in January 2013, was awarded the SIIA’s 2013 Codie Award for Best Semantic Technology Platform. Based on patented natural language processing technology, Luxid® is a powerful and scalable semantic content enrichment solution that recognizes and extracts relevant items of information hidden in plain text and enriches document metadata. By revealing the nature of unstructured information assets, it helps optimize their management and archival, their distribution through content management systems or portals, as well as their analysis. Available for on-premises as well as cloud-based deployments, the Luxid® range of products also includes a standard integration that streamlines its on-premise use in Microsoft SharePoint 2010 and Microsoft SharePoint 2013.

“During these tests we were able to successfully deploy Luxid® in a variety of typical customer situations, including high-availability scenarios requiring high-speed annotation of large volumes of content, where the elasticity of Windows Azure is crucial”, said Olivier Terrier, TEMIS CTO. “Luxid® is production-ready in Windows Azure.”

TEMIS’ customers’ projects often involve unusually high volumes of content covering a wide variety of topics, languages and formats. The amount of content being enriched may also vary very quickly, for example in situations where an entire archive must be processed, temporarily requiring several orders of magnitude more processing power as compared to day-to-day operations.

To test against these requirements, TEMIS adopted a hybrid IaaS and PaaS architecture, where the IaaS component offers the benefits of robust configurability and administration and the PaaS component enables an elastically scalable deployment that can scale up or down in quasi-real-time based on the customer’s ongoing needs. This architecture was successfully tested in a range of configurations, for deployments typically starting at 32 ‘Large’ Windows Azure Compute instances and above, providing more than 128 concurrent processing cores.
